Pact has been recognized for their innovative plan to recycle millions of used milk bottles a year with the Circular Economy Award at this year’s Chemistry Australia Industry Awards. The plan involves collecting used dairy containers from household recycling bins and processing them at Circular Plastics Australia’s (CPA) mixed plastics recycling plant in Melbourne.
The CPA facility, a joint venture with Cleanavai Waste Management, opened earlier this year and is capable of recycling up to 20,000 tonnes of used high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene (PP) packaging per year. This means that around half a billion 2L milk bottles are recycled. The recycled resin will be used at Pact’s packaging manufacturing facilities in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, which are being upgraded to include more recycled content in the production of HDPE milk bottles.
Sales manager Geoff Harvey accepted the prestigious award on behalf of Pact, while the packaging production teams across Australia celebrated the achievement at the awards ceremony. Congratulations are extended to all those involved in this process, including the team at the CPA recycling plant and the sales team who worked tirelessly to make this project a success.
