Delta Tecnic promotes the revalorisation of plastic waste
The plastics industry offers numerous opportunities to all those companies that have waste that can be recycled. Through certain treatments and colouring processes it is possible to give scrap a second life and revalue products whose life cycle has come to an end. The recyclability of PVC shows that the business associated with plastic waste has a long way to go.
PVC has an inherent sustainable nature. Made from sodium chloride (57%) and petroleum derivatives (43%), it contains less carbon than most major thermoplastics. In addition, it can be recycled repeatedly depending on the application. With this in mind, Delta Tecnic is committed to the circular economy and optimising recycling, helping its customers to revalue their waste in terms of colour. Good management and colour sorting of PVC waste will undoubtedly help to increase the added value of the second life of these recycled products.
In Delta Tecnic's case, manufacturers sort the scrap by colour and the company applies a masterbartch that revalorises that waste. Conceptually, Delta Tecnic can help the world's recycling rate to be higher. As a global target, the company helps the recyclability of PVC, in line with the industry.
