Plastic bottles
Paper Round recycles plastic bottles.
- We recycle all types of plastic bottles– clear, coloured, cloudy milk bottles or washing up and shampoo bottles.
- Plastic recycling is easy and can be recycled along with cans in our special clear plastic sacks.
- Special Paper Round bin allows for easy collection
- Our free posters and stickers educate staff on recyclable plastics and what can and cannot go in the bin.
Paper Round collects plastic bottles. These are separated by specialist equipment into clear PET and cloudy HDPE.
PET plastic bottles are washed and flaked. Flakes can be spun into fibres for clothing or carpets. Recycled PET is also being used to make bottles, closing the recycling loop.
HDPE plastic is made back into plastic containers.
Other remaining sundry plastics tend to go into a mixed plastic grade. This is converted into things like drain pipes and 'Plaswood', a wood substitute used to make outdoor furniture and pallets.
