Creating and developing a recycling channel for multi-component plastic packaging
The "recyclability" of some plastics is degraded by the presence of additives, which have allowed the packaging to give special qualities (strength, lightness, etc.). Once used, these materials, known as "multi-component plastic packaging," are a major problem in the plastic lifecycle (end up at best in incineration or burial), although they are a solution to reduce the carbon footprint and overall weight of plastics Packaging. "LOCAL3" proposes to create and develop an industrial solution for multi-component plastics, by processing units using post-industrial and post-consumer waste deposits and developing useful, competitive and recyclable products that can be used locally. The Solution allows all plastics to be reused in a circular economy on a human scale, easily deployable in the areas of material creation concerned. Locally sourced, locally transformed and locally used
