Recycling PC
The process of recycling PC can vary from recycler to recycler, but the main steps in the process remain the same. The first part of the process is to sort the materials to ensure that only PC plastic is present, and that no other polymer types are in the stock.
The second step in the process of recycling PC is to clean the PC to make sure there are no contaminants on the materials. These contaminants could be things such as residual fluids or dirt on the plastics; removing these is highly important to the overall quality of the recycled product produced at the end.
The final step in recycling PC is to shred the plastic into small pieces so that it can be melted down, shaped and then cooled into recycled plastic pellet ready to go back into manufacturing.
PC Recycling UK
There are many options for PC recycling UK services available to businesses to help them deal with their scrap responsibly. Despite this, many companies are not fully aware of these plastic recycling options and the benefits they offer. However, through WasteTrade, all of these opportunities will come to you; we have reputable, fully-verified buyers from across the UK and around the world waiting to buy your PC scrap.
Currently, many of the businesses producing PC waste pay to send their materials to landfill or incineration. This could be due to being uninformed, as mentioned above; however, it is most often the case because of the red tape involved in going through the PC recycling UK process. However, this no longer needs to prevent businesses from recycling their waste, as WasteTrade handles all compliance and logistical issues on behalf of both the buyer and seller.
