Prior to the new wash system, Poly Recovery focused primarily on processing industrial grades of plastics.
The ribbon cutting ceremony, held at the Pease International Tradeport, featured presentations by U.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter and representatives of Sens. Kelly Ayotte and Jean Shaheen. The presentations also touched on the support of the recycling efforts from manufacturers such as Coca-Cola of Northern New England and the production of recycled and cost effective materials for Hampton, New Hampshire-based Foss Manufacturing, which has taken in all the scrap plastics that is processed by Poly Recovery.
“Not only does the wash facility open doors to more types of plastic waste streams we can divert from landfills, it will create more sustainable jobs in New England, reduce the carbon footprint of truck traffic leaving the region as well as provide local American manufacturers with the cleanest and most cost-effective recycled resin possible,” says John Pelech, founder and CEO of Poly Recovery.
