U.S. Polymer, based in Portland, Ore., has introduced a new program that targets the recycling of stretch plastic scrap. Called Green/Redeem, the program will look to recycle stretch plastic scrap, often used to wrap pallets. U.S. Polymer is an international thermoplastics broker specializing in the plastics secondary market.
"Many large bakeries, supermarkets, major retail and logistics operations use tens of thousands of pounds of clear stretch plastic to wrap goods on pallets for easier stocking and handling,” says Randy Haight, president of the company. “Our unique Green/Redeem program picks up this waste material for recycling, turning the scrap plastic into the most sought-after commodity in business today, namely cash."
