Environmental Protection from Plastic Raw Materials

In order to protect the environment from plastic waste, many countries have banned the use of plastic in various industries. However, this does not solve the problem of ocean pollution.

We believe that it is necessary to take practical measures to reduce marine plastic pollution. Therefore, we will actively cooperate with you to develop environmentally friendly products and recycle raw materials.

Plastic recycling process:

  1. Recycling waste plastics into new products.
  2. Using recycled plastics as feedstock for new products.
  3. Using recycled plastics as a raw material for manufacturing other materials.

Nylon-recycled raw materials from ocean waste plastic

Ocean recycled Nylon is a type of plastic made from ocean plastic fishing nets, which is retrieved from the world’s oceans. Damaged fishing nets, part of Ocean-Bound Plastic(OBP), a term used to describe plastic waste that is at risk of ending up in the ocean nearshore. The process of recycling ocean plastic nets involves collecting discarded fishing nets, washing and separating them by color, shredding them into flakes, then melting and processing them into new material. Recycled Nylon can be used in creating sustainable consumer products. (RebornPlas, 2022-06-01)

Application of ocean recycled-Nylon

  1. Water bottle cage for bikes using recycled ocean waste plastic.
  2. Recycled ocean plastic sunglasses.
  3. Furniture made from recycled fishing nets.

Tritan 100% recyclable plastic raw materials

Tritan material is a safe and 100% recyclable environmentally friendly plastic material developed by Eastman Company in the United States to replace PC material containing BPA (bisphenol A). It has passed the US Food and Drug Administration, Health Canada, European Food Safety Authority and Tested by third-party agencies such as the European Commission, Japan Sanitary Olefin and Styrene Plastics Association, NSF International, and the Chinese Ministry of Health, and proved safe and non-toxic, free of bisphenol A (BPA-Free) and bisphenol S (BPS-Free), and no Substances such as estrogenic activity (EA-Free) and androgenic activity (AA-Free) allow their use in food or utensils that may come into contact with the human body.

Application of tritan materials

Tritan material has the characteristics of safety, stability, non-toxicity, high-temperature resistance, wear resistance, drop resistance, and crystal clarity. It has been widely used in various eco-friendly tableware,  containers, and infant products that come into contact with food or drinking water around the world; in addition, Tritan material is also used in medical products. , such as: syringes, minimally invasive surgical instruments, and other medical device components.

Conclusion

In conclusion, it can be said that environmental protection from environmental activities, plastic raw materials from the use of recycled nylon and Triten to be recovered as a raw material for the future development of progress in the trend of environmental protection will only make greater contributions.
