Renew Polymers Leads the US Recycling Trend with 100% Recycled Trash Bags

POLYSTAR Star-X monolayer blown film machine producing recycled plastic film
 
Renew Polymers has made a bold move that showcases what’s truly possible in sustainable manufacturing: producing garbage bags entirely from 100% recycled materials and doing it at scale, without compromising on quality. Their investment in two sets of POLYSTAR’s Star-X monolayer blown film machines has proven to be a game changer.
 

Why POLYSTAR and Star-X blown film machine?

 
 




When Renew Polymers began exploring how to expand production and increase recycled content, they had one clear requirement:

 
  “We aimed to use 100% recycled material, not just 10% or 50%, but the entire amount, while still achieving consistent and reliable quality.”
 
 
Star-X blown film machines delivered exactly that. With their reliable performance, precise process control, and ability to handle high percentages of recycled material, Renew Polymers successfully boosted production capacity and product quality. This has allowed them to confidently manufacture garbage bags using fully recycled material, meeting both market demand and sustainability targets.

Consistent Film Quality

 
Despite the natural variations found in recycled pellets, Star-X blown film machines maintain film properties such as thickness, strength, and sealing performance with remarkable consistency. This stability enables Renew Polymers to confidently produce garbage bags that not only meet customer quality standards but also hold up to the demands of everyday use.

Simplified Operation

 
Operators at Renew Polymers have found Star-X blown film machines easy to learn and run, even when switching between different batches of recycled material. This flexibility is especially valuable in recycling-focused production, where feedstock quality can change.

Turning Challenges into Opportunities

 
Producing garbage bags from 100% recycled plastic comes with its share of technical challenges: material consistency, color variation, and mechanical strength. Thanks to the stability and adaptability of Star-X, Renew Polymers overcame these hurdles, turning what many see as obstacles into opportunities to stand out in the market.

Beyond Production: Embracing Circular Economy Values

Renew Polymers’ vision aligns perfectly with POLYSTAR’s mission: helping manufacturers turn plastic waste back into valuable products. By choosing to use only recycled resin, Renew Polymers keeps thousands of tons of plastic out of landfills and back into circulation each year.
 
 
 

Looking Ahead: Expanding Possibilities

 
The success of these first two Star-X lines has Renew Polymers already thinking about expansion. With growing demand for eco-friendly packaging and the ability to run 100% recycled content confidently, they see further investment in POLYSTAR as a natural next step.
