Going Green: What is PCR Packaging?
Top Tubes is now offering eco-friendly sustainable packing products. PCR, also known as Post Recycled Resin is an environmentally-friendly packaging option great for plastic tube manufacturers that want to support recycling programs to reduce the impact on landfills and maintain consumer demand. PCR materials usually consist of every-day recycled items such as aluminum, paper, plastic bottles, and cardboard boxes.
PCR plastic tubes offer increased recycling/repurposing improvements in which result in a higher quality plastic tube for consumers. PCR plastic material is a great option for eco-friendly plastic tube manufacturing in addition to a variety of other finished products. PCR plastic is a readily available product and is both cost-effective and environmentally friendly. Repurposing existing plastics uses fewer fossil fuels and energy, overall saving the environment from excess pollution and wasted resources.
Bio-PE Plastics
Bio-Pe plastic materials are made from bio-based plastic produced from renewable resources such as plants, typically most often from sugar cane. Using bio-based PE resources Top Tubes is contributing to a lower carbon footprint compared to the traditional PE. Top Tubes is giving their customers opportunities to make a difference to improve the overall environmental performance of their sustainable packaging and plastic tubes.
Bio-based products are derived from renewable resources such as plants, corn, potatoes, and even vegetable oils and often times are not compostable, but this is not always the case.
