VALORPLAST takes back the household plastic bottles (mostly HDPE, PET, PVC) collected and sorted by French municipalities, involved in the Green Dot program monitored by ECO-EMBALLAGES and ADELPHE. VALORPLAST makes sure the plastic bales go through material recycling processes. VALORPLAST is a non-profit private company, founded in 1993, whose shareholders are the representatives of plastic producers and converters. VALORPLAST is in charge of:
- Training the operators in the municipal multimaterial sorting centers, in order to make sure that the plastic bales fulfil mutually agreed specifications,
- Monitoring the plastic bales quality,
- Transporting the plastic bales to reclaiming/recycling plants,
- Marketing the plastic bales, mainly in Europe, with long term strategy to help the development of European recycling capacities,
- Finding new outlets in order to cope with increasing volumes,
- Communication with municipalities, schools and associations.
VALORPLAST also takes part in studies to optimise the collection/sorting/recycling process of plastic packaging. |
