Plastic Free: An incredible situation

The paradox of plastic pollution is that there is not enough recycled plastic in the market. Think about it. Popular movements have increased the demand for regenerated raw materials to produce eco-friendly packaging.

The producers of recycled granules and flakes are no longer able to meet the demands of the packaging industries because the collection and recycling of plastic waste is far inferior to the requests.

Separate collection and its recycling produce too little material compared to what would be needed and therefore the plastic waste to be recycled is there but it ends up mainly in landfills or in the environment. An incredible situation.
