Recycling Product News – The PET Recycling Coalition achieves 29 million pounds of PET captured each year
August 27, 2024
The Recycling Partnership’s PET Recycling Coalition has released its first annual report showcasing measurable improvements in the circularity of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Established in June 2022, the coalition awards grants to material recovery facilities (MRFs), secondary sorters, and reclaimers to increase acceptance, improve capture, and deliver higher-quality recycled PET to responsible end markets. In just two years, the coalition has brought together key constituents to address the biggest barriers to the recyclability and circularity of PET. Its members have helped deploy over $5 million in grant funding, capturing 29 million new pounds of recycled PET each year.
