[PCR Plastic]
PCR Plastic, or post-consumer recycled plastic, refers to plastic material that has been recycled after being used by consumers. This recycled plastic can be used to create new products, reducing the amount of virgin plastic needed and diverting plastic waste from landfills. PCR plastic is an environmentally friendly option that helps to reduce the reliance on new plastic production and promotes a more sustainable approach to plastic use.
[PCR HIPS]
PCR HIPS, or Post-Consumer Recycled High Impact Polystyrene, is a sustainable plastic material created from recycled post-consumer polystyrene products. High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS) is widely used in applications such as packaging, consumer electronics, toys, and construction materials.
The production of PCR HIPS involves collecting post-consumer polystyrene items, such as food packaging, disposable utensils, and various consumer goods, and processing them into recycled HIPS resin suitable for manufacturing new products. This approach contributes to waste reduction, resource conservation, and environmental sustainability by diverting plastic waste from landfills and utilizing it as a valuable resource.
PCR HIPS retains many of the key properties of virgin HIPS, including impact resistance, rigidity, and processability. This makes it suitable for a wide range of applications while promoting sustainability and reducing environmental impact.
