PIR (post industrial recyclate) is a raw material recycled from production process waste. This waste has never been put into the consumer circuit.
PCR (post consumer recyclate) is a raw material recycled from consumer waste of any kind (e.g. the bumper of an end-of-life car, an empty yoghurt pot)
The notion is important because many companies are subject to standards that impact their production and their choice of raw materials, such as the so-called “food contact” or “cosmetic product safety” standards. These standards, which are quite old, sometimes recommend not using recycled raw materials. On the other hand, other regulations encourage the use of recycled raw materials, in particular the recent ones resulting from the AGEC law.
Our recycled plastic raw materials from the RECYCLE-SANS-CHIMIE® range can be supplied as :
Grinded from 8 to 12mm (with or without dusting or screening)
Micronised (PVC only)
Compounded/granulated
Each material has a Technical Data Sheet and a Safety Data Sheet. Customised materials can be prepared.
We will study the feasibility of your material specifications in terms of quality and quantity and offer you several variants of the RECYCLE-SANS-CHIMIE® range of recycled plastics.
We provide samples for you to try out in your own facilities, whether on a laboratory scale (samples of a few kilos) or on an industrial scale (samples of a few hundred kilos or a few tonnes).
