Interzero operates several state-of-the-art plants that transform plastics such as PE, PP, PET or EPS into consistently high-quality pellets &#8211; the basis for new products in industry and trade. <\/p>\n<p>As one of the leading suppliers in Europe, Interzero thus offers marketable alternatives to virgin material. The recycled pellets impress with their quality, cost-effectiveness and significant CO\u2082 savings. <strong>The use of recycled plastics is becoming even more important as a result of the PPWR:<\/strong> in future, companies will have to <strong>provide evidence of the binding proportion of recycled material in packaging<\/strong> and ensure that it is designed to be recyclable.

From 2030, in addition to the general obligation to recycle packaging, there will also be binding minimum use quotas for post-consumer recyclates (PCR). <\/p>\n<p>The exact specifications and the respective PCR percentage depend on the type of Packaging and the material used.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243;
