From the beginning of our company’s existence, we have focused on innovation, and one of our main goals is to neutralize the environmental impact of our products. Polyethylene foam and bubble wrap are plastics. Their use is extremely universal and versatile, and their unique properties make them irreplaceable in many industries. Unfortunately, plastic waste is a real challenge for the natural environment. Is there a way to fix it? Yes – recycling!
How to recycle polyethylene foam and bubble wrap?
There are several ways to approach the recycling of polyethylene foam and bubble wrap, mainly using:
– multiple use of a given material,
– appropriate segregation,
– use of recycled products.
Do you know which plastics are the most environmentally friendly? Those that have already been produced and are in use. Remember to always use them until they lose their properties. Polyethylene foam and bubble wrap are extremely tear-resistant – use them repeatedly and encourage your customers to do so. By keeping existing materials in circulation, you reduce the need to produce more plastics.
When the product is used up, put it in the correct container. Both polyethylene foam and bubble wrap can be processed multiple times. Thanks to the segregation of waste, we do not have to produce the necessary materials from scratch, we only use existing raw materials.
At this point, we want to draw your attention to an important thing – plastics should be separated from each other in plastic containers. This means that you must remove unnecessary components before you throw away your waste. If the polyethylene foam ends up in the bin with a tape, it probably can’t be recycled.
What will you gain from recycling polyethylene foam and bubble wrap?
We cannot completely eliminate plastics from our lives. However, we can limit their formation precisely by recycling. Recycling gives plastics a second, third, or even hundredth life. Together, let’s create a world where plastic is processed in a closed loop, making the most of products and waste!
