Look, plastic waste is a problem in our society nowadays, like all the plastic waste we use at home daily: caps, bottles, films, trays, amongst other things. There are many plastic products that end up in the yellow container, because they are packaging. Packaging has a very short cycle life. From when it is produced in a shampoo factory to when the shampoo is thrown into the yellow container, only six months have passed, on average. A bottle of water has an even shorter lifespan. A pallet of recycled plastic picks up from there. You take packaging that ends up in the container in the garbage in less than six months and it is converted. It is put into a process where a second life is given to the plastic. Some pallets weight 23kg, so imagine how much plastic packaging is needed to convert it into a pallet. A reusable pallet can last up to ten years. So, we're taking waste that could end up in landfills or the ocean and converting it into a pallet that has a long lifespan, it can be used again. We can continue to give life to that plastic and that is what we promote.
Furthermore, recycled plastic pallets reduce carbon footprints, reduce dependence on fossil fuels, and are simply more sustainable.
