Green production, sustainability and use of Eco plastics

Protecting the environment, respecting nature and the resources it makes available to us are commitments we have made as a company for many years now to actively contribute to an increasingly green present and future.

In our production of “Green Line” items in PP and PE, are made using plastics materials derivatives in fact from processing scraps properly treated and brought back to new life.

The life cycle of plastic materials

When producing “Green Line” broom and brush bases by injection molding technique, we use recycled or reclaimed PP ( polypropylene) and PE (polyethylene).

These materials undergo careful inspection.

Environmentally sustainable second-generation materials are generated from the waste.

They are separated from any foreign matter, are washed and even the smallest impurities are removed; they are then ground so as to obtain granules ready for further processing.

Recycling and remanufacturing, however, are not the same thing.

These are two processes in which it is the energy used that makes the difference.

Recycling involves high energy expenditure, as the product is first destroyed and then reprocessed.

In contrast, remanufacturing does not involve the destruction of the material resulting in great energy savings.

It therefore represents the best solution for the health of the environment and to improve our company’s production processes.

The possibility of recovering plastics means that waste is no longer considered a waste, but rather a resource.

The new material generated is very close to the original first-grade material with a significantly smaller environmental impact, in terms of reduction of resources used and Co2 emissions.

Composition of ECO PP/PE for broom and brush bases.

The ECO PP/PE polymer we use is tested according to the UNI 10667-16:2015 standard.

This regulation applies to raw-secondary plastics-mixtures of heterogeneous polyolefin-based plastics from industrial residues and/or post-consumer materials destined for different processing technologies.
