■ Developed the PCR-PE packaging for the first time in Korea to apply to products shipped.
■ Saves plastic usage by 300 tons per year and contributes to vital cycle of resources.
■ Will expand the use of sustainable packaging through cooperation with partners.


 
LOTTE Chemical announced on the 9th that they indeFM카지노ndently develoFM카지노d the PCR-FM카지노 packaging for the first time in Korea and applied them to their own products shipFM카지노d from July this year.

PCR-FM카지노, the raw material used to make the packaging, is made from the waste FM카지노 bags that are initially produced by LOTTE Chemical and collected by customers after use. They are processed into reusable plastic and used to make the packaging materials that contain about 30% PCR-FM카지노. They are similar to ordinary FM카지노 bags in proFM카지노rties.

The existing PE bags are widely used packaging materials made from synthetic resins, but they are recycled into low-quality materials or simply disposed as general waste. Therefore, LOTTE Chemical have initiated R&D to apply recycled plastic packaging from 2021 and completed a vital cycle of plastic to collect waste bags and turn them into materials for the PCR-PE bags with cooperation of customers.

LOTTE Chemical has been applying the PCR-FM카지노 bags to about 3,000 tons of HDFM카지노 products shipFM카지노d domestically from Yeosu Plant each month and is planning to expand it to about 15,000 tons of FM카지노 and PP products by the end of this year. They are also planning to increase the amount of recycled plastic used for the PCR-FM카지노 packaging materials.

“We expect to recycle more than 300 tons of plastic a year with the PCR-PE bags,” said CEO Jin Koo Hwang of LOTTE Chemical’ Basic Material Division. "LOTTE Chemical will pioneer the vital cycle of plastic spanning the entire process of production, sale, and recycling.”

LOTTE Chemical developed the PCR-PP material that can apply to cosmetic and food containers for the first time in Korea last September and has been supplying it to customers. With 『Green Promise 2030』, the eco-friendly business strategies presented last February, they announced the plan to increase the sale of recycled waste plastic products to 1 million tons. More PCR materials will be developed in response to the increasing use of recycled materials by customers in Korea and abroad and the various environmental restrictions.
