BETTER FOR THE

Environment

A more environmentally friendly plastic material

When choosing plastics, polypropylene has significant advantages related to its composition. Polypropylene is a polyolefin resin and does not contain halogenated elements such as chlorine, nor phthalate-based plasticizers which are present in the composition of PVC. Thus, in the event that polypropylene is not recycled but is destroyed by an incineration process, its end of life does not generate chlorinated derivative compounds that are potentially harmful to the environment or to health.

A recyclable product and recycled ranges

In its life cycle, a strong point of polypropylene is above all its capacity to be recycled a large number of times without its technical characteristics changing significantly and altering its performance. Priplak has also started on ambitious process of recovering our customers’ industrial waste. This therefore allows Priplak to develop specific certified ranges made from 100% recycled polypropylene.

R100

Priplak R100 is the first complete range 100% recycled from post-industrial cutting waste. It meets the requirements of the ISO 14001 standard. Since 2009, Priplak has also been recovering its customers’ waste and is a major contributor to the circular economy.

Buyback your scrap

Priplak is commited to production with a low carbon footprint. To achieve this, a ‘Zero Waste’ policy with the repurchase of polypropylene scrap has been set up. To take advantage of this, please get in touch and Priplak will make for you a personalized offer to buyback your scrap material.

ACTIVE RECYCLING PROGRAM

Certification

ISO14001

Priplak achieved ISO14001, early in 2010, and along with the CO2 reduction plan, these two programmes will ensure a further reduction in our environmental impact. This framework will enable Priplak to identify and amanage further projects designed to improve consumption of water, electricity and to reduce raw material wastage.

The nature of the material, coupled with our innovative approach and environmental certifications, mean that Priplak is one of the most ecologically sound plastic substrates available.

ISO14021

Priplak’s R100 range of totally recycled PP, now conforms to ISO14021. Priplak guarantee that it uses only post industrialised, recycled waste in the production of R100, so that once the material has been used, it ends up back where it started. Customers can now use the Mobius ring logo with our R100 product.

Priplak R100

Priplak R100 is a range made from 100% recycled PP. This comes from unprinted post-industrial polypropylene scraps.

It perfectly meets the growing demand from users of plastic materials:

  • Offer environmentally friendly products and participate in the circular economy of buying back scraps,
  • Disconnect from the volatility of virgin resin prices based on the price of oil.

By organizing the recovery of PP offcuts, Priplak produces a range of 100% recycled PP sheets.

However, the availability of Priplak R100 is limited as it depends on the supply of recovered and reconditioned PP scrap.

For more than 10 years, Priplak has maintained a zero waste policy by reusing your polypropylene scrap
