Myplas mullistaa kierrätyksen Yhdysvalloissa uudella Flexible Film Plantilla

Etelä-Afrikassa toimiva kierrätysinnovaatioiden johtaja Myplas on äskettäin vihkinyt käyttöön huippuluokan joustavan kalvon kierrätyslaitoksen Rogersissa, Minnesotassa. Tämä on merkittävä edistysaskel yritykselle ja heijastaa merkittävää yhteistyötä MBOLD:n kanssa, joka on Minnesotassa toimivien yritysten, tutkijoiden ja voittoa tavoittelemattomien järjestöjen yhteenliittymä.

The Rogers plant features advanced mechanical recycling and pelletizing capabilities, capable of processing both high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films. It’s projected to recycle about 90 million pounds of plastic waste annually, boosting the local economy with around 200 new jobs​​.

Andrew Pieterse, CEO of Myplas USA, shared his enthusiasm about this milestone, highlighting the importance of this initiative in realizing the company’s vision and its contribution to the industry​​. In the US, the usage of flexible films is immense, with only 5% currently recycled, pointing to a significant opportunity for environmental impact​​.

Nicholas Kolesch from the Alliance to End Plastic Waste (AEPW) also emphasized the potential for resource recovery in the plastic value chain, particularly in managing film and flexible plastic waste​​.

This initiative aligns with global efforts to mitigate the environmental impact of plastics. Integrating advanced recycling technologies and fostering collaborative partnerships, Myplas is at the forefront of promoting a circular economy and sustainable waste management practices​​.

The Minnesota plant is a testament to Myplas’ commitment to innovation and environmental stewardship, setting an example for the industry in managing plastic waste challenges through collaborative efforts​​.”
