Good morning,
I was wondering if anyone has found a good way to recycle the scrap plastic from our industry. I know when we have called recyclers they want the type and amount. We do not have large quantities and when we tell them the types of plastics, they don't know what they are and do not want them to contaminate their material. We primarily have surlyn, vivak, thermolyn and proflex with silicone. I thought I would ask our community and see what you are doing. I will post the results for all.
Thank you,
