The new facility will process flexible plastics typically used in food packaging. These ‘hard-to-recycle’ plastics will be converted into pellets which can be used to make new flexible products such as postbags and refuse bags. The site will have the capacity to take 25,000 tonnes of this plastic, a figure which surpasses the amount of flexible plastic packaging Nestlé UK and Ireland produce. The pellets can be used to replace virgin plastic films in construction and agriculture as well as to make bin bags. David Walsh, CEO of Impact Recycling, said: “We are delighted to partner with Nestle on this initiative to develop a 25,000-tonne commercial recycling plant for post-consumer flexible plastic. Without the funding from Nestlé, this development would not have been possible.” #Nestlé #Sustainability #Recycling #UK #Investment #Initiative
