There can be some variance in the exact process of PET plastic recycling from one recycler to the next, but the general process will remain the same. The first step is to sort through and remove all non-PET materials from the stock; any materials such as other polymers, metals, wood, cardboard and so on cannot be present during the recycling process.

The second step in the PET plastic recycling process is to cleanse the PET to ensure there are no contaminating substances left on the plastic. These contaminants could be dirt or residual liquids, and they must be cleaned away otherwise the quality, and therefore the value, of the end product will diminish.

The third and final step in the process of PET plastic recycling is shredding the material into small pieces so that it can be melted down and then shaped and cooled into recycled plastic pellet. This recycled pellet is then ready to be put back into manufacturing, keeping the valuable plastic resources out of landfill and in use within the economy.

Plastic beverage bottles are among the most common PET products found on the market; however, there is only around 3-15% recycled content currently being used in these bottles on average. Given that recycled content targets are becoming commonplace for drinks companies, with many of these businesses pledging to transition to 100% recycled content in their bottles, PET bottle recycling can be very lucrative for those who produce these waste streams.

Given the rising demand from beverage companies for recycled material to go into the manufacturing of their bottles, recyclers are always in need of supply of this material. Therefore, they are always willing to pay good prices for PET waste. You can get the best value for your scrap bottles by selling them directly to the PET bottle recycling companies through the WasteTrade online marketplace.
