Shredders for Plastic Waste Shredding - Waste and Recycling - Plastics Recycling

From blighting the world’s oceans, to their single-use unacceptability, plastics have become one of – if not the – most talked about ‘wastes’ on the planet. Addressing the problem at source is now a priority for both David Attenborough and Westminster MPs, as well as the general public. With product manufacturers being tasked with helping to address the issue, we should now finally see the much-needed step-change that is required to promote greater reuse and recycling of plastics. But where does shredding fit in?

Why shred plastic waste?
  • Significant effort is required throughout the supply chain, to tackle the scale of this global waste crisis – 85% of beach litter worldwide is currently made up of plastics!
  • As of March 2019, UK Parliament adopted ambitious measures to tackle single use plastics – 77% of plastic bottles must be collected and recycled by 2025 for example, rising to 90% by 2029. The EU wants 55% of all plastic to be recycled by 2030.
  • Shredding has a varied role to play, from achieving waste volume reduction, through to material regranulation for recycling and even alternative fuel production.
