2. Recycled plastics
As explained above, plastic packaging manufacturers use polymer grades adapted to their activity, in order to meet the constraints of industrial processes and add functionality to the product/packaging pair.
The production of recycled plastics tailored to the very specific needs of manufacturers is the result of collaboration between all players in the plastic packaging value chain.
2.1 Working the entire value chain
The development of recycled plastics in packaging can only be achieved through a shared effort between all players in the packaging value chain, and in particular raw materials and additives producers, packaging manufacturers, used packaging collectors/sorters and recyclers.
