Nearly
all municipalities in North America and Europe accept PET as part of their
recycling programs.
Infrastructure
Recycling PET depends on participation from consumers, but it also requires that
their local governments have the infrastructure for collection programs and the proper
sorting equipment.
Because rPET supply depends on
local collection programs and consumers’ participation in these programs,
supply remains limited and the increased demand will drive prices up.
