Living without plastics is no longer conceivable. Nevertheless, we need to change the way we use plastics. Recycling and the increased use of recyclates play a crucial role.👍 We at Röchling Industrial have recognised the relevance and launched our Röchling-ReLoop® product family in 2022. With high-quality materials based on post-consumer and post-industrial materials, we are increasing the proportion of recycled materials on the market and closing valuable material cycles. To do this, we take back remnants from our customers and from our own production and process them into new, value-retaining products. In this way, we channel value streams sensibly, conserve valuable resources and reduce the ecological footprint of our products.👣 #röchling #pioneeringtogether #recycling #sustainability #sustainable #plastics #worldrecyclingday

There is a collective onus on brand owners to help inform consumers about the best recycling practices when disposing of waste packaging and reduce the risk of contaminating recycling streams due to confusing or missing recycling instructions. Research from On-Pack Recycling Label (OPRL) revealed a strong correlation between the quality of information included in recycling labels and consumers’ ability to recycle appropriately, highlighting the need for a consistent, easy-to-follow format for these labels.
