One indirect benefit of replacing virgin resins with Ocean Waste Plastic is major reduction in CO2 emission.
Resources consumed to produce 0.45 kilo (1 pound) of OWP:
Producing 1,000 grams of OWP reduces C02 emission by >60% compared to
producing 1,000 grams of virgin resin.
Resources
The production of ocean waste plastic resin uses far fewer resources than the production of new virgin resin
Energy
Recycling plastic saves twice as much energy as burning it in an incinerator
Employment
Recycling plastic also creates 6 times more jobs than landfilling recyclables and 36 times more jobs than incinerating them
Emission
Production of recycled resin uses 85% less energy & emits 75% fewer greenhouse gases than the production of virgin resin
Pack Tech has developed, designed and supplied plastic packaging since 1946. Our headquarters is in Denmark.
Who we are
Working with Ocean Waste Plastic is sometimes challenging. OWP can be divided into two categories.
