PETrecycling CZ is non-commercial, independent, free & unsponsored Czech
web portal for funs, communities, administrative, law-makers, politicians,
PET plastic industry etc. in the Czech Republic.
My closing statement read:
"There is only one real effective and incentive method to encourage
environmentally sound collecting of beverage one-way containers and it is
deposit in combination with High-Tech R&D resulted Reverse Vending
Machines! |

The main objective of the
European PET Bottle Platform (EPBP) is to evaluate technologies / products
and to allow new PET bottle innovations, while minimising the economic and
environmental consequences for the European PET recycling industry.
|
It will do so by promoting the recyclability of PET
bottles on the market by:
-
Establishing European harmonised guidelines for PET
bottles recyclability that will be accepted across the whole value
chain.
-
Encouraging industry to test new PET bottle concepts
and/or materials before market launch according to the harmonised
guidelines.
-
Giving advice and recommendations to the different
stakeholders.
-
Sharing information and knowledge across the whole
value chain.
The Platform is grouping technical experts in the
field of PET production, design and recycling for an objective
evaluation of new technologies and an independent assessment of their
impact on the PET recycling processes across Europe.
For this, the Platform has established several
test procedures in order to assess the recycling profile of new
packaging technologies, such as barriers, additives,
closures, labels, etc. Products that pass the tests should not
experience any
problems during recycling. |

This platform includes the main stakeholders involved in
the PET recycling value chain:
and
Petcore (PET
containers recycling Europe).
