Post Consumer Recycled Bottles Market

Post Consumer Recycled Bottles Market – Significance

Recycling of plastic bottles can help to conserve the additional 80% of energy that is generally used for manufacturing new bottles, containers, and other products. Post consumer recycled bottles have a high scrap value per ton. For each ton of plastic that is recycled, independent research estimates that 7 yards of landfill space is saved. Post consumer recycled bottles are more environment friendly as compared to non-recycled single use PET bottles. Less than half of the plastic bottles sold in 2016 were collected from recycling and just around 7% of those collected were turned into new plastic bottles.

It has been estimated that around 10-12 million tons plastic leaks into the world’s ocean every year which is ingested by fish, sea birds, and other organisms. Post consumer recycled bottles manufacturers helps in reducing the environmental crisis due to serious climate change. Therefore, there needs to be a massive shift in preference for post consumer recycled bottles to avoid the landfill problem.
