'Flexible plastic' items like potato chip bags are often thrown away, but can be recycled back into food-grade films using an award-winning COtooCLEAN process. So-called flexible plastics aren’t very ...

Biffa Polymers, based in the United Kingdom, has opened what it claims is the U.K.’s first mixed plastic sorting and processing facility in Redcar, Middlesbrough, U.K. The facility was opened after ...

A new chemical process can essentially vaporize plastics that dominate the waste stream today and turn them into hydrocarbon building blocks for new plastics. The catalytic process, developed at the ...

Advances in materials, tooling, and technology continue to blur the line between the most suitable process and a given application. Thermoforming, of course, can be used to make everything from ...

Epoch Biodesign has developed a process that uses enzymes to break down plastic waste into reusable raw materials, ...

A new process to recycle existing plastics indefinitely and reduce the flood of plastics into landfills is being developed by scientists at the University of California, Berkeley. From sandwich bags ...

Processing efficiency will be a key focus for some exhibitors at MD&M West, set for Feb. 4 to 6, 2025, at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, CA. The event is North America's largest annual ...
