Extrustion and Toll Recycling

Green Planet Recycling is a plastic recycling and extrusion business, specialising in the manufacture and supply of high quality recycled Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) pellets and toll recycled Polypropylene (PP) pellets, packaged in either 25 kilogram bags or 1 ton bulk loads.

We have a production capacity of around 160 tons per month and focus on recycling pre- and post- consumer LDPE pellets. We have recently also started recycling Polypropylene (PP), including on a "toll" basis.  Planning is under way to expand the production capacity to 240 tons per month.

LDPE Recycling

The LDPE pellets are manufactured from pre- and post-consumer plastic waste, viz. plastic that has already been used for its designated purpose and discarded as rubbish.

Green Planet has invested in a multi-stage, high volume and specification washing and drying plant that is capable of processing huge volumes of dirty plastic, including scrap extracted from landfill sites.  In addition to the tons of plastic that Green Planet processes extracted from landfill sites, it also sources directly from  waste-generating sites, such as commercial or industrial centres, and waste management companies.  As such, it is one of very few recyclers capable of successfully cleaning and processing dirty post-consumer plastic in high volumes.

Examples of products manufactured from recycled LDPE pellets are black and other garbage bags, firewood and other clear plastic bags, plastic sheeting used to wrap furniture and appliances, and a variety of other non-food plastic bags and sheeting, certain types of light weight plastic irrigation piping, generally in combination with High Density Polyethylene.

PP Recycling

We purchase manufacturing and industrial plastic scrap, offcuts and over-runs. Please contact us should you have any requirement for toll recycling.
