Title: Teamwork to Make the Clean Work
Description:
Harnessing collaborative innovation to create ultra-clean, virgin-like recycled resin, PureCycle Technology launched its new-to-the-world purification process in 2023. Developing game-changing technology does not happen overnight. PureCycle Technologies and Milliken set out to develop PureFive, an ultra-pure recycled (UPR) resin from plastic waste feedstock. This took years of work and dedication, and now brand owners can incorporate UPR into their own manufacturing processes. Join this session and learn how: Creating new innovations can come with challenges, but the reward is worthwhile Take advantage of this bird’s eye view of innovation at work.
Finding like-minded partners can help bring the vision to life amid regulatory and process challenges
Removing additives and colorants in recycled feedstock is possible with the correct pressure process and solvent
Additivizing recycled PP brings it to a very similar state as virgin resin clarifiers, nucleators, and similar additives help upcycle recycled PP much like they are used to enhance virgin PP
