The site adds more than 40 million pounds of annual extrusion capacity and is designed to run a significant portion of the Clean Wash Flake (CWF) produced through D6’s Omni Recycling Center in Longview, Texas.
Site will be equipped with a new grinder to support closed-loop recycling, allowing customers to return plastic trays at the end of their lifecycle through Nefab’s take-back program. These materials will be reprocessed and re-extruded into new plastic sheets.
New facility holds 10 plastic resin silos, three of which house post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic. Axium uses PCR in as much as 30% of its packaging solutions, and its silo technology allows it to transition to greater PCR storage to meet rising demand.
Utilizing VO+ masterbatch, Thanh Phu is developing a new generation of machine-direction oriented (MDO) voided polyethylene (PE) films for use in pet food laminates, frozen food packaging, and hygiene applications.
This innovative solution addresses the industry's growing need for more sustainable alternatives to conventional fluoropolymer-based processing aids while maintaining strong performance standards.
Variant A of CornNext-17 is suitable for products produced by extrusion molding, and Variant B is suitable for products produced by injection molding, including spoons, knives, forks, plates, and trays.
Ideal for thin-gauge hand wrap applications, the new resin is designed to help provide high tenacity and consistent extrusion, as well as help enable the incorporation of high loading levels of post-consumer recycled (PCR) content.
The expansion is supported by a multi-million pound investment at Coveris’ specialist extrusion site in Winsford, Cheshire, the UK’s largest blown extrusion facility of polyethylene (PE) films.
The new multimillion-dollar line, E23, promises to benefit both customers and employees as Cortec® Advanced Films continues to blaze new ground with an expanding portfolio of specialty film and bag products.
