Additives, modifiers & colorants will boost recycling of conventional thermoplastics used in packaging & add value to bioplastics.
The findings of an independent laboratory testing of ‘VO+ LLDPE’ technology show that it has minor recyclability issues and, therefore, it is suitable for recycling in a polyethylene (PE) film stream.
