The entire plastics industry value chain is challenged to move towards a more sustainable material management model. Especially dealing with post-consumer waste plastics has challenged the North American Recycling Market and for the most part, materials such as plastic film simply got exported. By China changing their import rules for such materials, our industry has to re-think its approach.

The technology to produce high quality recycled pellets from post-consumer plastics including the abilty to recycle plastic film is available and can be used to either export such or put them back into products right here at home.The combination of China changing its policy and companies taking sustainability ever more serious represents a great opportunity for plastics recycling in North America.

The webinar will cover market conditions in North America for post-consumer materials, the state of the art in technology and provide specific examples what can be achieved based on a variety of input materials.
