At Interplast 2024, Total PET showcases the latest advances in PET plastic recycling and its commitment to leading the way to a more sustainable future. The recent opening of a new plant dedicated to the production of PET PCR grain, capable of meeting food grade, is a significant milestone in the company’s commitment to sustainability and quality.
Located in Rio do Oeste/SC, Total PET has four production lines to meet the different characteristics of the products it processes. With cutting-edge technology, including a modern grinding line with an optical separator system for PET bottles, the company has developed a highly technological process that removes almost 100% of impurities and contaminants from recycled PET. Furthermore, as a result of extensive years of research, testing and refinement, PET PCR grain was developed, which will soon be able to meet the most stringent requirements of the food industry.
RECYCLING PROGRAM HAS A POSITIVE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
During more than 15 years of operation, Total PET has played a fundamental role in promoting a cleaner and more sustainable world. By recycling more than 11 million PET bottles per month, totaling approximately 800 million throughout its history, the company has significantly contributed to reducing CO2 emissions, conserving water and preserving natural resources.
At Interplast, Total PET will have the opportunity to share its advances and discuss ways to continue collaborating towards a greener and more sustainable future in the plastics industry. The team will be available at the stand to demonstrate initiatives towards the circular economy and how industries are changing course towards this model.
