As a leading plastic product manufacturer in South Africa, Tufbag has a duty and responsibility to implement sustainable production processes. One of the ways in which we are limiting our impact on the environment is by recycling polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) to create recycled plastic pellets for sale.
Customers who wish to buy these recycled pellets can do so with the knowledge that they too are part of a more sustainable plastics industry.
We look at how Tufbag is committing to a more sustainable future below.
Minimising Production Waste
It is inevitable that production waste and offcuts will be generated during the manufacturing of our PP and PE products. To make full use of all of our materials and minimise the impact on the environment, we transform these discarded materials into high-quality recycled pellets, which customers can then purchase and use in their own manufacturing processes.
This is a sustainable alternative to purchasing virgin plastics and helps to reduce the waste footprint of everyone in the plastic products value chain.
Lowering Demand For Virgin Plastics
Virgin materials needed for plastics manufacturing can have a high carbon footprint. Therefore, reducing the demand for virgin materials is important for making the plastics industry more sustainable.
By offering reliable and high-quality recycled PP and PE pellets, Tufbag is able to help manufacturers produce their products with a lower carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable industry with more responsible material sourcing that aligns with local and international sustainability goals.
Supporting a Circular Economy
When Tufbag’s internal waste is recycled into valuable PP and PE pellets, we are able to limit the amount of plastic that gets put into landfills. This reduces plastic pollution and protects the environment.
When we sell our recycled plastic pellets to customers, we play an active role in promoting circular economy practices by providing sustainable raw materials that can be transformed into new and valuable products rather than just getting dumped.
Here at Tufbag, we have high-quality recycled plastic pellets for sale to help you manufacture plastic goods in a more environmentally conscious manner. Contact us today to find out more!
