The new grade, Gravi-Tech REC GT5200-5089 C I natural, is based on up to 60% Social Plastic® polymer resin material from Plastic Bank, a social enterprise that collects and recycles ocean-bound plastic waste.
The new Gravi-Tech grade not only advances material science but also contributes to social good,” said Matt Mitchell, Director of Global Marketing, Specialty Engineered Materials at Avient.
The collected material is processed into Social Plastic feedstock for reuse in products and packaging by some of the world's most progressive companies.

At the recycling facility, PET and rPET materials are separated from non-plastics and other plastics, then compressed and gathered into bales for easy transportation to a processing center.
Most Recycled Plastic One major reason?
Chain extenders can be used in order to raise the IV and ensure the rPET strength and performance is suitable for the new application. https://www.recyclingtoday.com/article/recycled-plastic-additives/ Material Solutions for rPET Material suppliers are working on the issues we’ve raised in this eBook.
