Sustainable use of plastic packaging from Schoeller Arca Systems

Its not a secret that plastic has its origin in oil. However making plastic from oil gives the energy source almost an endless life. Schoeller Arca Systems transforms virgin plastic material such as Polypropylene and Polyethylene into long lasting plastic packaging products that can be used over and over again.

Schoeller Arca Systems says that its not only the plastic packaging itself that has great sustainable advantages but also how the customers are using the plastic packaging. Many industries are changing their one-way packaging, such as wood and cardboard packaging, in their supply chain into Returnable Plastic Packaging.

Why?

One-way packaging can only be used limited trips and then need to be scraped or recycled. Returnable Plastic Packaging is if used correctly able to last year after year until its not suitable as an packaging anymore. Then there is the possibility to grind the Returnable Plastic Packaging and re-use the re-grinded plastic material when Schoeller Arca Systems produce a new Returnable Plastic Packaging. This is how plastic packaging becomes and endless story and the customer achieve an efficient and sustainable supply chain.
