Understanding PCR Packaging:
PCR packaging consists of materials obtained from everyday consumer recycling, such as aluminum, cardboard, paper, and plastic bottles. Local recycling programs collect these materials and transport them to recycling facilities for sorting. The materials are then turned into small pellets through melting or grinding processes, which can be molded into new items. PCR plastic is used in various finished products, including flexible packaging. Unlike recyclable and compostable packaging, PCR packaging provides convenience and environmental benefits without imposing any specific obligations on the end consumer.
