POLYPROPYLENE :
RECYCLABLE PLASTIC

Every year we produce a considerable amount of waste, many of which are not recyclable and can be very polluting for the environment. This includes plastics (especially packaging), representing 11% of household waste and from non-renewable resources (hydrocarbons), which are Most of which are difficult to recycle and often contain many toxic additives. Their impact on the environment is therefore very strong, so it is essential to find alternatives to reduce our ecological footprint .

Aincorporation has chosen a recyclable plastic material – polypropylene – to make its reservation boxes UNIBOITE and BT BOX. Composed of propylene molecules, it is very easily recyclable compared to other plastic materials such as PVC.

So with 1 tonne of recycled plastics you can save up to 700 kg of crude oil! The advantages of polypropylene are many: it is very rigid, resistant to abrasion, waterproof, tear-proof, transparent …

Moreover, its combustion only releases water and carbon dioxide, so no chemicals.

Polypropylene is used in various fields, for example for the manufacture of automotive parts, food containers, packaging films, ropes, adhesives and adhesives, textile fibers (carpets) Parts for household appliances, toys, electrical and electronic components, pipes, …
Example of manufactured products and recycled polypropylene:

Polypropylene Adhesives (chlorine-free and solvent-free) replacing PVC tapes, transparent pockets for storing documents or markers with recycled polypropylene body. Polypropylene is also used for baby diapers because of its hydrophilicity, while its resistance makes it possible to make plastic bags recyclable.
