About forty players, including businesses, politicians, government and non-governmental organizations, have joined the pact to work to create a circular economy for the Canadian plastics industry.<\/p>\n
From 2013 to 2019, Canada has seen a gradual decline in the growth of household plastics waste collection, according to More Recycling.<\/p>\n
The founding partners of the pact include prominent companies such as Coca-Cola Canada, Danone Canada, David Suzuki Foundation, Keurig Dr Pepper Canada, Kraft Heinz Canada, Nestle Canada, Unilever Canada and Walmart Canada.<\/p>\n
While the development plan (roadmap) has not yet been developed, the pact aims to achieve, by 2025, the following goals:
\n– indicate the types of plastic packaging that are problematic or unnecessary, and take measures to eliminate it from the market;
\n– take measures to create 100% recyclable, recyclable or compostable plastic packaging;
\n– create conditions that ensure processing or composting of at least 50% of all plastic packaging;
\n– to provide an average of at least 30% recycled polymer in the manufactured packaging.<\/p>\n
In August 2020, the Plastics Pact Alliance was formed in the United States as the North American Platform for the EMF Network, following the steps developed and outlined by EMF in the New Plastics Econom initiative.<\/p>\n
Earlier it was reported that the Russian corporation TECHNONICOL, a leading international manufacturer of building materials and systems, launched a program for the processing of polymers – used drainage, cornice and facade systems made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The pilot project will be implemented in Ryazan at the company’s plant for the production of plastic drainage systems.<\/p>\n
Also, the Balitech company (Moscow region) has developed a specialized granulation line that allows you to process the fine fraction of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic compound after cutting the scrap of decommissioned cables. The granulation line allows you to obtain high-quality granular PVC material, which can later be used in injection molding on injection molding machines or extrusion lines.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
