HDPE Waste
The recovery of waste High Density Polyethylene polymer resins are typically classified into several common
grades
of HDPE for recycling material identification.
The recycling procedure involves three main stages of material processing as
scrap,
regrind
or
repro.
HDPE Scrap
The first stage of the recycling process is the segregation of
HDPE Scrap
into uniform grades
and the removal of any foreign materials or contamination.
The scrap material may be bundled or baled to facilitate transportation or material handling.
HDPE Regrind
The second stage of the recycling process is reducing various sizes and shapes of HDPE scraps into a uniform granule or
HDPE Regrind
suitable for blending and as an extruder feedstock.
HDPE Repro
The next stage of the recycling process is reprocessing the regrind into a resin pellet or compound with
specific technical specifications, colour, fillers etc.
The
HDPE Repro
becomes a raw feedstock in the manufacturing process worldwide.
