Plastic Bubbles Sustainability and Recyclability Statement

At Plastic Bubbles we are committed to sustainable practices and constantly looking for ways to reduce our environmental footprint. This includes continuously reducing our resources to convert materials as well as looking at alternative environmentally friendly materials such as biobased, biodegradable, and compostable resins, cartons and masterbatch. 

On our manufacturing floor we have implemented a closed material loop system to reuse and recycle all our raw materials. This entails that <1% of all polymer material converted goes into landfill. In addition, any excess materials which also includes paper, oil and scrap metal gets sold to downstream partners who use the materials for recycled products, this is in line with our Zero Waste policy for used resources. 

Furthermore, we have invested in solar energy and have installed a grid-tied system with over 700 panels producing 440Mw/h and reducing our daily electricity consumption by 25%. Lastly, we recirculate and treat all water used in our manufacturing plant so that minimal water is consumed.

We are also a proud EPR member of Polyco and declare and pay a recycling fee for all materials converted by us. We work hard to integrate sustainability into every process from designing, responsible sourcing, manufacturing, and to selling plastic packaged products.

We always aim to ensure that internal procedures are continuously monitored and improved on to address our environmental impact.

“We are doing our best to “Reduce, Reuse and Recycle” plastic waste in our home, at work and in our surrounding communities. Join us in helping to make this a greener world.” – The Plastic Bubbles team invite you to join us and Reduce, Reuse and Recycle ALL Waste.

Springs is more than just where we have chosen to base our factory. It is our home and our community, and because of this, our Corporate Social Investment is focused on the area surrounding our business.
