We are constantly looking at right-weighting and innovative designs in order to reduce the carbon footprint of your finished products.
Plastech is committed to maximise the use of renewable energy (eg solar panels) and to reduce the energy and water consumption as well as overall process waste during our process (eg use of electrical injection machines) We also encourage our suppliers to have similar policies and prioritise our relationships with partners that are aligned on these targets (for secondary packaging and transport efficiency for example)
Plastech is actively exploring the use of renewable as well as recyclable/recycled resins for the manufacture of our products. We are in the process of testing various renewable and biodegradable resins and we are working with potential suppliers to explore the possibility of obtaining appropriate levels of post-consumer recycled in future products.
