(carbonliterecycling) -- California based
bottle-grade raw material producer Carbon LITE has opened the world's largest
bottle-to-bottle plastic recycling plant in Riverside, California.
The
company said that it specialises in processing used plastic bottles into
bottle-grade PET pellets that can
then be used to manufacture new plastic
beverage bottles, conserving virgin resources, reducing waste sent to
landfill and capitalising on the energy already invested in making existing
plastic products.
According to carbonLITE, the 220,000 sq-ft (20,440 square
metre) plant will recover more than two billion plastic
PET bottles annually
from California's Kerbside and Redemption Value
programs.
