Sponsored by the Association of PostConsumer Plastic Recyclers
China's Operation Green Fence policy sent many MRF operators searching for alternative markets for mixed plastic bales. Fortunately, many found domestic plastic reclaimers interested in purchasing non-bottle rigid plastic material. Although specific sorting by the MRF may be necessary to access some domestic markets, the additional sorting may well result in additional revenue. The Sort for Value Online Calculator has been developed as a tool that calculates the economic value of sorting recyclable rigid plastics.
