The product lines involved include the 28-ounce multi-purpose cleaner and daily spray for the method; the 25-ounce floor cleaner. This article comes from China's largest plastic bottle trading website. Jason Crouch, the method's director, explained: "Because we have successfully launched the 100% PCR bottle in the UK, we want to explore what new products can be launched in the United States."
However, it is not used for a complete European supply infrastructure. The PCR sheet supply facility for blowing PET bottles has not been established in the United States.
Amcor director Greg Rosati pointed out: "Last year when the method found us to cooperate in the development of this type of product, we hope that the PCR content can reach 50%. By testing the 10%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% content products, we found that It is also feasible to reach 100% content, but we also know that it takes a lot of effort and experimentation to pass the product for all standards.†PCR has a lower intrinsic viscosity and shorter molecular chain than pure resin.
PCR plastic bottles effectively reduce carbon footprint
Using 100% PCR to produce 28-ounce bottles, the carbon footprint can be reduced by 60% or 63.14 kg CO2 equivalent per 1,000 product reductions. When using pure PET, it produces 104.67 kg CO2 per thousand bottles.
