30,000 tonnes of recycled, food-grade PET and 15,000 tonnes of recycled HDPE for bottle-to-bottle applications: Alpla<\/a> and the chemical company PTT Global Chemical (GC) have realised the largest plastics recycling plant of its kind in Thailand. After a construction period of around 18 months, production has started at the ENVICCO joint venture. The plant, located in an economic zone on the coast of the south-eastern province of Rayong, has the Latest recycling technology and state-of-the-art production lines for the manufacture of high-quality recycled plastics with the approval of the USFDA<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Alpla contributes more than 25 years of recycling experience to the joint venture and supplies its production facilities in Asia and the USA with the recycled material. also promotes the local circular economy<\/strong>. With the plant, majority owner GC is supporting sustainable developments in the region towards a resource-conserving economy and way of life.<\/p>

\"GC is proud to announce the start-up of ENVICCO today. Used plastics from Thailand will make up 100 per cent of the raw materials that ENVICCO will convert back into valuable products using state-of-the-art production technologies. The ENVICCO production plant is part of our long-term circular economy strategy to fully realise GC's value chain. It also creates additional jobs within the communities and goes hand in hand with the Thai government's Bio-Circular-Green Economy Model.\"\u00a0<\/p>
