ISRI Adopts Position On Recycled Plastic Content
The Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI),Washing- ton, has updated its position on minimum recycled plastic content. The association says its new position encourages efforts that will help spur demand for recycled plastics. ISRI says its position also aims to increase the commitment by stakeholders throughout the supply chain to ensure plastics are responsibly manufactured, collected and recycled into new products. Plastic Recycling The association’s position on minimum recycled plastic content supports: • legislation that expands the use of recycled plastic in ap- plications that are appropriate, noting these levels will vary by application and type of plastic; •efforts by manufacturers and brand owners to increase the use of recycled plastic resin beyond legislated levels and applications when possible; • manufacturers incorporating the principles of Design for Recycling to ensure their products are easily recycled; • stakeholder efforts that seek to increase plastic recycling through public education, outreach and advocacy to meet growing demand for recycled plastic; and • efforts that look at the life cycle assessment of a plastic product to help manufacturers make informed choices on the inclusion of recycled plastic resin.
