最大的塑料废品回收商滚e collection companies, Shakti Plastic Industries, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to set up the largest plastic recycling plant in India.
This project is conceived to become India’s largest recycling plant, with expected output to be 50k tons of recycled granules. The joint venture will add volume to Lyondell Basell’s Circulen Recover line of existing PE and PP materials, allowing the company to meet the growing demand for recycled polymer materials in India from converters and brand owners.
Supporting the initiative taken by the Government of India on PWM rules, this project will bring India under the top countries concerning Recycling Infrastructure developments. Shakti Plastic Industries is helping brands to fulfill their compliances and boost the current value chain of Rag-pickers by providing direct employment in the sector.
To secure materials for use at the new venture, Shakti Plastic Industries will provide the best infrastructure facilities by enabling blockchain, Web3, and NFT technology to the waste collection process in India. With its extensive experience in product development and deep knowledge of the Indian polymer market, LyondellBasell will leverage its leadership position in innovative plastic production technology.”
Our goal is to make a significant dent in the amount of plastic waste produced in India with this fully automated recycling unit. This is a major achievement for us, and we’re proud to lead the way in India’s plastic recycling. We hope this plant will inspire other companies to do their part in reducing plastic waste.
We will continue to seek opportunities for future growth as we strive to become a valuable player in the circular economy. By working with LyondellBasell, we will be pioneering in India in recycling rigid plastic waste, supporting the government’s initiative to reuse recycled plastic in packaging.
