Recycled plastic packaging refers to packaging products made from post-consumer or post-industrial plastic waste. Instead of ending up in landfills, used plastics like PET, HDPE, and LDPE are collected, cleaned, and processed into reusable packaging materials. This eco-friendly alternative helps reduce plastic pollution, conserve resources, and promote a circular economy.

Recycled Plastic Used in Packaging
- Recycled PET (rPET): Popular for bottles, clamshells, and food-grade packaging.

Recycled Plastic Packaging Production Process
1. Plastic Waste Collection
Used plastic items like bottles, bags, and containers are collected from homes, businesses, and recycling centers.
2. Sorting and Washing
The plastic is sorted by type (like PET, HDPE, or PP) and color. It’s then washed to remove labels, dirt, and leftover food or liquids.
3. Shredding Into Small Pieces
Clean plastic is shredded into small pieces or flakes to make it easier to process.
4. Melting and Making Pellets
The shredded plastic is melted down and turned into small plastic pellets (also called granules). These are used as raw materials for new packaging.
5. Creating New Packaging
The recycled plastic pellets are used to make new packaging products like plastic bags, bottles, trays, and containers using special machines.
6. Quality Check and Final Touches
The finished packaging is checked for quality. Labels, prints, or designs may be added depending on its use.
