Green Packaging, PLA Plastic Containers

 Green Packaging, PCR Plastic Containers

SKS Bottle offers PCR plastic containers (Post Consumer Resin) as a sustainable solution for environmentally friendly packaging. PCR plastic consists of a blend of recycled resins that would have otherwise ended up in landfills and replaces the use of virgin polypropylene resins. With the ability to recycle into beneficial new packaging, PCR plastic is comparable to the appearance and higher-end feel of PET plastic while providing consumers with eco-friendly satisfaction in your product.

How PCR Plastic is Made:


The production of PCR plastic begins with the collection and sorting of recycled products in commercial and residential recycling programs (i.e. paper, plastic, metal. cardboard, & aluminium cans). The contents are then separated, washing and removing away the scrap materials. The recyclable plastic is then extruded & reprocessed into post-consumer resin.
