Closed Loop Program
We pioneered closed loop recycling programs that divert and recycle landfill-bound plastic waste for use in our plastic film & bag products.We offer a variety of products and services that help our customers divert landfill-bound used plastic into reusable products like resins or bags and film.
Through the program, companies divert what would typically be landfill-bound plastic waste and recycle it through us instead. It then goes on to be reused in new products. Learn more about our closed loop program here.
Sustainability Scorecard
Helping our customers reduce their carbon footprint with the purchase of products made with recycled content.Making the decision to engage in a recycling philosophy means taking on social and economic responsibility to care for the environment. As a company committed to innovative and sustainable manufacturing, Petoskey Plastics took on the challenge to quantify the impact that their customers’ recycling practices are actually having on the planet.
The sustainability scorecard, launched in 2016, gives our customers and closed loop partners the advantage of evaluating the actual impact of their purchasing and sustainability efforts.
Through participation in the closed loop program and purchase of recycled products from Petoskey Plastics, customers receive information on the pounds of plastic waste collected, recycled, and percentage of recycled plastic used in their new products.
