Plastics NZ promotes efficient manufacturing products to minimise production waste and reduce material usage
There are lots of things you can do to help recycle plastics including sorting your plastics carefully, always rinsing your plastics and removing the lids.
Plastics that can't be recycled can be used as an alternative source of fuel due to the high amount of energy that can be produced from plastic waste.
Polypropylene (“PP”) is a highly recyclable and sought after material in Aotearoa NZ with strong value and a corresponding end market.
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is a valuable resource that can be recycled to make new insulation products for housing, resulting in better health and living standards.
