🌍 Celebrate Recycling Day with a game-changer: Flint Group's #Evolution series. The #Evolution series, with its Deinking Primer and Caustic Resistant Overprint Varnish, ensures that recycled PET packaging can be reused with greater efficiency, maintaining quality and supporting the industry's move away from virgin materials. By enhancing the recyclability of PET packaging, we are one step closer to a circular economy. Let us embrace these sustainable solutions and keep pushing for a greener future. Every step counts!

From waste to glass packaging, cullet plays a crucial role in the circular economy 🔄🌍 In this context, Verallia has made cullet a key element of its strategy. Here’s how: 👉 Increasing the recycling rate, by developing collection networks and raising consumer awareness of the circularity of glass. 👉 Optimizing the performance of processing centers by improving material sorting technologies in our 19 cullet processing centers across 8 countries. Learn more about how Verallia uses cullet as a key lever in its decarbonization roadmap: https://lnkd.in/eVJjzsNU #Verallia #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #Cullet #Decarbonization #EcoFriendly

🌍❗️Today marks Global Recycling Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of recycling in preserving our planet for future generations.
 As we celebrate this global initiative, let's take a look at the realm of packaging recycling and its role in fostering circular economy.♻️
 PET is a top performer in recycling, at least, when it comes to bottles. However, PET trays, which are used in the food packaging industry, are currently only being recycled in small quantities. The complexity of multi-layered plastic trays makes processing them into high-quality recyclate more challenging, but there's untapped potential in their reuse.
 At Herbold Meckesheim , we address this challenge with our state-of-the-art PET Tray Washing Line. This system efficiently transforms the contaminated input material into clean PET flakes, ensuring pure recyclates.

Happy World Environment Day! 🌍 At iACE, we believe in sustainable growth and the importance of plastic recycling. This Environment Day, join us in celebrating the innovative ways we're contributing to a greener planet. 🌱♻️ Our student Dhrumil Kahar will take you through the plastic recycling process at iACE. Using a compression sheet molding machine, we transform various plastic waste into reusable sheets. For instance, we convert milk pouches into writing pads and create tabletop furniture. Let's work together for a cleaner, greener future! 💚 #WorldEnvironmentDay #EnvironmentDay2024 #PlasticRecycling #SustainableGrowth #GreenInnovation #iACE #EcoFriendly #RecyclingProcess #Sustainability #GreenPlanet #ReduceReuseRecycle #CompressionMolding #MilkPouchRecycling #EcoProducts #StudentInnovation #GreenFuture #SustainableLiving #EnvironmentalAwareness #EcoEducation #GreenInitiative #SaveThePlanet #iacein

I’m thrilled and proud to announce that Greyparrot and Bollegraaf and Lubo Recycling Solutions are forming a strategic partnership. 🎉 From our very first meeting, it was clear that Edmund (Bollegraaf’s CEO) and I shared a similar vision for the future of the waste sector – one in which #AI-driven automation accelerates the recovery of more high-quality material, driving economic value for the industry and reducing the impact of #waste on our planet by sending less waste to landfills and incinerators. ♻ Bollegraaf’s global scale – as the world’s largest builder of #recycling facilities, serving over 3,000 plants worldwide – perfectly complements our expertise in AI waste analytics. Together, we will accelerate the digitisation of the waste sector with advanced AI technology, and collaborate on the development of new “smart” plants and innovative products. 🌎 To learn more about this exciting partnership click here 👇 : https://lnkd.in/ejG5ZPtf

Discover how significant challenges in the recycling industry can also represent remarkable opportunities in this recent article by Waste360. With a quarter of PET bottles and half of non-bottle PET lost in processing, many recycling facilities struggle to keep up. Explore the impact of recent efforts by The Recycling Partnership's PET Recycling Coalition and learn how upgrading sorting technology could not only enhance recycling rates, but also meet the growing market demand.

More than 2,855kg of various plastics has been recycled on our Medway contract as part of supply chain partner, Cusack’s, Zero to Landfill recycling scheme♻   In an effort to reduce the amount of waste going to landfill, we have partnered with Cusack to palletise plastics that would usually be unrecyclable. These include ped barriers, traffic cones, grit bins and bollards.   The pallets are then collected and recycled, which are then reused to make ped barrier feet which the business purchases as replacements for our ped barriers.   This sustainable approach creates a circular economy, achieving no waste and extending the life cycle of everyday highway products ✅ #circulareconomy #recycling

Last week, #PollutionProbe, in partnership with The Coca-Cola Company, piloted a new remote-controlled, mobile waste collector called a PixieDrone on Lake Simcoe, along the waterfront in City of Barrie with City of Barrie Marina!      The new technology collects floating debris, including plastic, flowing into the #GreatLakes, and is an amazing addition to #GLPCleanup’s network of capture technologies, allowing us to visit even more locations and communities across the Great Lakes, and remove significantly more plastic from the environment.      The new PixieDrone will join over 135 other plastic capture technologies already deployed by the initiative throughout the Great Lakes. It targets floating debris in all forms including organic, plastic, glass, metal, paper, rubber, etc. and can collect approximately a bathtub's worth of waste (160 litres) in a single 6-hour charge.     Read all about it here: https://lnkd.in/gVifFhC9 Council of the Great Lakes Region
