KAVA Reveals New Investment In Chinese Market
Plastic Report (CONT’D FROM PAGE 33)
Committee on Plastic Pollution and a Circular Economy (IPC). The Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) issued the following statement in response to the report: “The release of the Mobilizing Federal Action on Plastic Pollution report is a significant step as it represents the first comprehen- sive, government-wide strategy to target plastic pollution. “APR applauds the report for recognizing plastics recy- cling as a crucial part of the large-scale, holistic approach needed to achieve a true circular economy for plastic. Im- portantly, the report identifies several key actions that are long-standing APR priorities as proven and necessary steps to improve plastics recycling. Specifically, the report empha- sizes the importance of both the supply of high quality re- cyclable plastic packaging with design standards and spec- ifications and the demand for post-consumer material with minimum post-consumer recycled content requirements. Further, the report notes opportunities to define economic incentives to maximize the value of recycled material. “APR looks forward to continuing to participate in im- portant dialogue around the robust state and federal poli- cies that are needed to improve packaging design, boost collection, enhance processing, and ensure that new products are made from recycled material instead of virgin material derived from petrochemicals and fossil fuels. A strong recycling supply chain is vital for minimizing waste and strengthening sustainability.”
Edale, the British manufacturer of flexographic presses for the carton and label sectors, is entering the Chinese mar- ket having secured a new deal with folding carton convert- er, KAVA. Jiangsu, China-based KAVA is to install a flexo-based FL5 press and servo-driven web-fed FDC-600 flatbed die-cutter, creating a fully inline single-pass carton produc- tion system. The investment sees the first Edale machines installed in the Chinese market.
