Cesa Nox A4R offers an effective solution for brand owners who need to maximize their PCR usage to achieve sustainability and recyclability targets, recyclers involved with flake or pellets, and convertors of bottles, film, and sheet who need to maintain high-quality levels of polyolefin PCR.   CycleWorks™ Innovation Center For Plastics Recycling

One way clothing and footwear producers are working to address these priorities is by using more recycled raw materials, such as recycled polyester from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, within their synthetic fibers. The plastic mass is then shaped into filaments, spun, and texturized into an already-dyed yarn.
