Polyethylene (LLDPE/LDPE & HDPE) PCR Pelletising:

We use our material sourcing, recycling knowledge and technical expertise to produce a quality recycled polymer, meeting our customers’ circular economy market needs and increasing the beneficiation of valuable used plastic material recovered from the environment.

Our goal is that our customers are able to use our polymer for virgin polymer replacement in order to meet the legislated Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) recycled content targets.

Our Product Ranges

All collected LDPE material is sorted and then sent for shredding and washing, before pelletising. Our product recipe’s which have been developed and modified over the past 30 years, together with our unique technology, allows APR to produce a polymer that is perfectly suited to our customer’s requirements for quality and extrusion performance.

All collected LLDPE material is sorted into grades and then sent for shredding and washing, before pelletising. A new exciting APR polymer recipe has been specifically developed for the pallet wrap market, suitable for multi-layer extrusion on high-speed extruders that are able to run recycled polymer. The new targeted end use market is pallet wrap containing recycled content.

All collected HDPE is sorted, washed and granulated before sending it for pelletising. Proven recipes together with our state-of-the-art technology produce recycled pellets that are suited for quality critical market applications as virgin polymer replacement.
