Testing & Identifying Plastic Waste for Recycling
Recycling is a challenge we face together. Plastic manufacturers, retailers and government, are working to control plastic pollution on land and in our oceans, by evolving ever more circular economies. And polymer recycling is rising to the challenge, so that plastics once destined for landfills are now recycled into new products.
To get better quality of recycled polymers, it’s important to pre-sort plastics, so accurate identification leading to proper separation is critical for the industrial plastic recycling process. Plus, it’s important to check the mechanical properties of polymers and have a final quality check of the end product. Our solutions make use of the most commonly-used techniques which can be performed throughout the entire recycling process allowing for an in-depth understanding of the materials from start to finish. These cover:
Our recycling package supports the Plastic Identification Codes (PIC), used worldwide for packaging applications. PIC provides a uniform system for the identification of various polymer types and to help recycling companies separate various plastics for reprocessing.
Simplify and accelerate your polymer analysis for highest productivity. Confidently and reliably test your plastic and polymer samples to the performance standards that you require. Learn more about Materials Identification, Materials Performance and Residual Monomer Content.
Our comprehensive polymer analysis product portfolio has the flexibility to support ongoing innovation and keep up with your lab‘s ever-changing requirements providing both identification and characterization of your materials as well as failure analysis/contaminants analysis, additive and emissions analysis?
