What material is PCR？
PCR plastics refer to any type of plastic material that is made from post-consumer resins. The PCR plastic cosmetic tube specially means the recycled PE material.
Can PCR material be recycled again?
PCR tube packaging is manufactured with recycled PE materials. In general, PCR packaging cannot be recycled again since it’s already made from recycled materials. This allows brands to fulfill their sustainability goals, without relying on the consumer to recycle or compost the package after use. Anyways, Using recycled materials diverts waste from ending up in the landfill. From April 2022, the UK will impose an additional tax on packaging to meet 30% PCR. By doing this, the use of plastics will increase, reducing global carbon dioxide emissions and achieving sustainable development. This also poses challenges to the production of PCR packaging, such as purification technology, production capacity, material properties, etc., because these conditions currently have a great impact on the price of the materials.
