With its patented sorting technology for ground plastic goods, “plastsave” Umwelttechnik KG would like to demonstrate a new way in which sorting can contribute to recycling and resource conservation without high-tech infrastructure and at low cost in terms of investment planning and material and energy consumption. This is predestined not only for national use as an alternative option, but also internationally in countries without developed technical infrastructures, such as on the African continent. The waste dumped there could then be sensibly recycled.
For too long, the convenient path of destroying recyclable materials has been taken. Plastic recycling from municipal waste is active waste avoidance and thus documents the possible end of a waste property.
With the term “circular economy” we see, if everyone participates, the possibility that it comes to a circle…
… and hopefully stays
