Post Consumer Recycling

Post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials come from a wide variety of plastic products, such as food packaging, consumer goods, bags, toys, and electronics, that have reached the end of their useful life. These plastics can include PP, HDPE, LDPE, PS, ABS, and others.

PCR materials are typically collected through various recycling programs and must be properly washed and dried before being processed into pellets on pelletizing lines. Once recycled, the plastic pellets are used to manufacture new products based on their physical properties.
