PLASTICS

Plastic PET Bottle is a product we all use in our everyday life, our job is to collect it and promote it for recycling by introducing it back into the economy.

The PET preform is the product, the original form of which, by using its blow molding technique, produces the Plastic PET Bottle, which in turn is a raw material for recycling.

Polyethylene or else PE has many grades, there are LDPE (low density polyethylene), HDPE (high density polyethylene), LLDPE (low density polyethylene) and the lesser known XLPE, MDPE grades.

Each quality also offers distinctive properties.

HDPE offers excellent resistance to high temperatures and is not a health hazard, so you can find it in packages such as bottle-bottle milk, detergent bottle, plastic bags, plastic caps, plastic chairs, water pipes as well as One third of the world’s game production is made of HDPE.

LDPE, unlike HDPE, is less durable but more flexible, so you can find it in packages such as super market bags as well as water pipes.

The LLDPE is very similar to LDPE, the points of differentiation are mainly their elasticity and transparency. We find LLDPE in packs such as super market bags, wrapping wrappers or stretch wrapping.

PVC is the third most widely produced plastic after polyethylene and polypropylene, and can be found in many applications, drainage pipes, cable insulation as well as in door and window construction, also called PVC profile.

PP or polypropylene is the second largest plastic production worldwide after PE (polyethylene) is found in many forms in our everyday life. Its high hardness and ability to recover the shape it had prior to twisting-bending makes it ideal for packaging (such as PP packaging used in the pasta industry and the bread industry, food containers). It is also used in the automotive industry as well as in the rope industry.

PS or polystyrene is a less widely used plastic, but it is also found in many forms such as food packaging.

The plastics that we have available for selling are divided into the following main categories:

  • PET
  • PP
  • HDPE
  • LDPE
  • PVC
  • PS
  • ABS
