Recyclable plastic products represent an advantage throughout the commercial chain since, when separated and treated correctly, they can be converted into new articles, saving on the resin used for their manufacture.
What resins are recyclable plastic products made from?
In general, we can ensure that the main plastic products that are recycled are made with PET, HDPE, PP, and PS, this includes bottles, containers, caps, plastic bags, and other articles of said material.
What products are manufactured?
In some cases, there may be the manufacture of new containers for industries that are not related to human consumption, as in the case of food or pharmaceuticals, because certain standards are required to be met for these. However, in the case of other markets, there is no problem, there are even many water bottling companies that have managed to introduce a certain percentage of recycled resin to continue complying with the required safety.
In addition to this, fabrics can be made to make clothes or shoes, sunglasses, vacuum cleaners, computers, backpacks or bags, furniture, lamps, toys, and accessories, among many other items.
Why separate waste?
It is how consumers have the opportunity to help the recycling system in our country, which, although at a slow pace, is the Latin American country with the highest percentage in this area. By correctly separating the waste, we help ensure that those plastic products are not contaminated with organic material and it is much easier for them to reach the recycling center.
