Sustainable development is a key component of any business. We achieve this by creating a high-quality product that is highly reusable and recyclable. We also incorporate a greener approach within our production cycle by regrinding unwanted material and reusing it to produce new material. This technique allowed us to recycle 796 000 kg of plastic last year alone. But how green is corrugated plastic?
All these products are classified #5 plastics. Most local curbside services don't accept #5 plastics. In the US, you can use this easy tool to find your nearest pickup location.
These properties make corrugated plastic a great option when you are looking at reducing waste and your carbon footprint.
Corrugated plastic is made of Polypropylene (PP), also known as polypropylene or plastic #5. is a thermoplastic polymer. It is strong, tough, has a high resistance to heat and acts as a barrier to moisture. It also has a high chemical resistance. Polypropylene is the second-most widely produced commodity plastic (after polyethylene). In 2013, the global market for polypropylene was about 55 million tonnes.
