Strong Growth Ahead in Mexico – 7 Installations in 3 Months
In order to meet the growing demands of the plastic recycling industry in Mexico, POLYSTAR decided to localize the service team in Mexico City to be able to provide customers with a better and faster after-sale service. The cooperation with its local representation Plasticenter since 2013 has been very effective, providing in-time and local services to Mexican film/bag producers as well as professional recyclers.
More than 40 installations of POLYSTAR have been carried out since then in different parts of Mexico, including plastic producers who recycle their waste in-house (film, bags, raffia, injection molded, PS, PC) as well as professional recyclers who process a variety of material ranging from HDPE, LDPE, BOPP, laminated film to woven and non-woven waste collected from outside.
In the past 3 months, POLYSTAR has installed seven lines in Guadalajara, Leal, Pachuca Hidalgo, Reynosa, Tuxtla Gutiérrez, and Monterrey.
According to the film/bag processor located in Leal, the POLYSTAR line has allowed the company to use a higher percentage of recycled pellets in the film extrusion lines while maintaining the same quality of the film product. The Mexican bag producer exports most of its products to the USA.
"The ability to use more recycled pellets in our films with the help of POLYSTAR machines allows us to enter a different market and increases our margin. Because it's less costly while keeping the same quality."
General Manager of the Mexican Bag Producer
In the case of another processor situated in Guadalajara, the experienced bag producer explained why they chose POLYSTAR, and they shared their feedback after starting recycling.
"POLYSTAR has a very good reputation in the Mexican market and is well-known for its recycling machine. Many of our nearby factories have been operating POLYSTAR for years, so this was very convincing for us and an easy-to-make decision.
With the new installation of our POLYSTAR, we can now recycle better and more easily. The operation is very simple and we can achieve good output consistently with excellent pellet quality."
