Newly released sustainable packaging - Post-Consumer Recycled Plastic Bucket/Pail

2021.08.27

Pro-Design Group is proud to announce the launch of post-consumer recycled plastic buckets and pails. We are committed to creating a sustainable future together with our customers.

  • What is Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) plastic?

Post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics are plastics that have already been used and recycled for use again. It begins with the collection and sorting of recycled products – plastic bottles for example. These bottles are then separated from the other plastics, washed and cleaned of all other materials (for example, the labels, bottle tops, etc.). The recycled plastic is then extruded and reprocessed into PCR.

  • What are the differences between PCR and virgin resin?

Color: PCR is generally a mix of different colors that depends on the source of the recycled plastics. We can customize the color you need by adding pigment during production.

Function: After a series of studies, Pro-Design has sourced PCR resin that is able to pass all functional tests that virgin plastic buckets are subject to, including leakproof tests, stacking and toppling tests, drop tests, and load tests.

  • What are the benefits of using PCR?

According to data from the Environmental Protection Agency, recycled plastics account have far less environmental impact than their virgin counterparts. As a matter of fact, many studies suggest recycled plastics result in at least 25% less greenhouse/carbon dioxide gas emissions than virgin resins.

We are excited to help contribute to a sustainable environment. Contact us today to find out more details!
