The two new recoSTAR PET 165 HC iV+ PET bottle-to-bottle recycling lines have been installed at Srichakra’s recycling facility at the outskirts of Hyderabad, Telangana state, where the existing Starlinger lines – one with odor reduction technology for processing post-consumer polyolefins, the other one a PET bottle-to-bottle recycling line – are already in operation. With the addition of the two new lines Srichakra Polyplast has tripled rPET production capacities and now reaches a combined output of 42,000 tons of bottle-grade rPET per year.
“Due to the implementation of Extended Producer Responsibility by the Indian government and the requirement for brand owners and producers to include a share of 30 % of post-consumer recycled PET in their beverage bottles by 2025, the demand for rPET in India is on the rise”, said P V Ravindra, Managing Director at Srichakra Polyplast. “As an end-to-end recycling and plastic waste management company, we are committed to make meaningful contributions for more sustainability in the plastic packaging industry. We partner with corporations to help them meet ERP goals and ensure that sufficient recycled materials are available on the market. The excellent performance and reliability of our existing Starlinger systems made it clear that we opted again for Starlinger technology to carry out our expansion project.”
