The raw materials we work with are 100% recyclable and we make
it our duty to properly re-use all “dust, purge or waste” vinyl materials without
compromising the integrity of our products. Three areas of our company
are concretely dedicated in the re-use or recycling of materials:
1. All vinyl “dust, purge or waste” materials are recycled in the manufacturing extrusion
process in products such as our recycled valance or our Eco-Choice™ program
as post-industrial material.
2. We buy back customer “off-cut” vinyl materials and recycle these in “packaging
materials” as post-consumer material. Our packaging materials are made with post
consumer and/or post industrial material for the distribution of our finished goods:
Plastibec’s Regrind Packaging Program consists of using materials which could
otherwise end up in landfills.
Did you know that Plastibec recycles on an annual basis approximately 500,000 lbs
of PVC?
3. Our highly qualified extrusion technicians operate high performance extruders
with state of the art machine cooling systems resulting in high efficiencies and
minimizing water waste. Our water cooling system operates in a “closed loop”
system, meaning that the water used to cool down our equipment is constantly
re-used in our plant. Plastibec’s Water Conservation Program consists
of a significant investment in our extruders’ cooling system and re-circulating
water system for water that would otherwise end up in our drainage system.
