Recycling is in the spotlight. Following China’s import restrictions – which included most plastics – waste management companies across the US began telling municipalities there was no longer a market for recycling. This left communities with two choices – to pay much higher rates to get rid of recycling or to throw it away.
Where recycling does occur, there is a lack of understanding of what can be recycled and how to recycle. While some plastic material cannot be recycled, resins such as PET and HDPE are two of the most recyclable materials on the market.

-New Delabeler from STADLER Increases Output & Purity for Bottle Recyclers
German recycling equipment manufacturer, STADLER, has launched a new Delabeler for plastic bottle sorting plants, where it can significantly increase the output and purity rates.
Plastic has become an indispensable feature of modern life, and has many redeeming qualities: it is flexible and strong, as well as light; it can be used in place of natural resources such as ivory or wood, and is very good for keeping foods fresh, just to mention a few. However, its durability means that it does not break down easily when it is discarded, so that plastic waste is building up in landfills and flooding our oceans.
A responsible use of plastic, and its re-introduction into the production cycle at the end of its life through recycling, have become a necessity in order to address this issue effectively.Petrochemical PE Biobased Automotive
