The epidemic is predominant, and plastics move forward
In the face of the raging epidemic, plastics, as the main raw materials for manufacturing ventilators, monitors, thermometers and other medical equipment, play a very critical role, including many disposable protective products including masks, goggles, protective clothing and gloves It has also become a rigid demand
More use, whether it is disposable plastic products or not, will inevitably generate more waste
Quickly adapt and regroup
Although it seems that people's position in the treatment of plastic waste is somewhat disrupted by the epidemic, this hesitation should only be a short-term process
Take China's "plastic ban" as an example.
With the arrival of the "new normal" of epidemic prevention, China's footsteps will inevitably be followed by more and more countries
Pioneer attitude, continue to lead
As the upstream of plastic manufacturing, the chemical industry has always been at the forefront of plastic waste management
For many years, SABIC has always been committed to responding to the challenges of sustainable development on a global scale.
In recent years, SABIC has also been actively committed to empowering the circular economy
TRUCIRCLE SABIC TM heavy attack
SABIC launched another cycle solution product series-TRUCIRCLE TM at the 2019 German Plastics and Rubber Industry Exhibition (K 2019)
· Strengthen the recyclable design of the product
Reduce and thin the original packaging design under the condition of unchanged performance, and improve the easy recyclability and recyclability of plastic products, such as avoiding dark coloring and changing the material density; designing multilayer or inseparable structures as little as possible ; Increase the use of easily recyclable materials; improve and upgrade the sealed package design to reduce waste
Take the washing powder packaging bag as an example.
· Physical recycling: recycling directly after consumption
It is suitable for blended products that contain a high proportion of recycled materials to improve processing and product performance; and for resins that can improve recycled performance
In short, physical recycling is the process of breaking the well-known plastic bottles and other waste into plastic particles, adding other materials to make new plastic products
.
These plastics produced by physical recycling processes are usually used in household and daily use fields, such as the packaging of detergents, disinfectants and other products
.
A few days ago, SABIC actively launched the "Bag-to-bag" (BAG-2-BAG) project, which cleans the used transport packaging bags into base particles and then uses them for reproduction
.
Recycling: recyclable polymers
Through chemical steps, waste plastics are directly "returned to their original form" and re-entered into the cracking device to "start from scratch" to produce plastics
.
SABIC is a recycled polymer made from mixed plastic waste through a chemical recycling method and has been certified by ISCC.
Its performance is no different from traditional products.
It has been widely used to develop innovative, high-quality and safe packaging solutions
.
For example, SABIC helped Unilever become the world’s first food brand to use recycled plastic packaging.
The packaging comes from SABIC’s newly developed and certified recyclable impact-resistant polypropylene PP for frozen food; in addition, SABIC FLOWPACT polypropylene impact copolymer is also used.
Used to manufacture soup powder packaging boxes for professional kitchens
.
· Bio-based renewable polymer
SABIC is ISCC certified based on a renewable polymer product series based on raw materials that are not in conflict with the food chain.
It aims to reduce the use of fossil fuels.
The bio-based raw materials it uses contain no animal oil components, no palm oil components, and are mainly derived from papermaking.
Industrial waste ingredients, the performance is consistent with traditional products, and the product's entire life cycle carbon footprint is lower
.
This solution can ensure that the safety and performance of the product itself is not affected, and there is no need to modify the downstream production process, which not only saves costs, but also helps to alleviate the global food crisis and the earth's climate change
.
Around the world, SABIC has always been a pioneer in promoting the tide of sustainable development
.
Based on pioneering measures such as TRUCIRCLE TM , SABIC focuses on "sustainable development" throughout the entire enterprise value chain: starting from upstream raw materials, and cooperating with the entire industrial chain, to operation, customers, use stage and even the end of the product life cycle After recycling, create a "closed loop" of plastic
.
Focusing on the Chinese market and empowering the circular economy is the main path for SABIC to effectively promote its sustainable development strategy in the local area
.
In response to China’s maturing and evolving e-commerce market, SABIC and partners have jointly launched plastic corrugated boxes that are durable and reusable to replace common cardboard packaging boxes; as well as unique advantages.
High-melt-strength foaming grade products-using SABIC PP-UMS, a lightweight, durable and recyclable shipping container
.
Actively using the company's innovative process in Nansha plant, SABIC has successfully recovered polycarbonate waste from ordinary consumer products such as plastic bottles, and then converted it into high-performance plastic resin used to make consumer electronics housings
.
Relying on the company's strategic layout in China, SABIC is confident to continue to expand TRUCIRCLE TM 's landing in China, effectively enriching its product matrix and localization development
.
2020 is the final year of China's 13th Five-Year Plan.
Transformation and upgrading, quality improvement and efficiency enhancement are bound to reach a new level under pressure
.
2020 will also be a key node for SABIC to deepen its sustainable development strategy and further empower the development of circular economy
.
Taking TRUCIRCLE TM ’s new departure as an excellent opportunity, relying on the new strategic guidance of the "14th Five-Year Plan" for high-quality development, embracing the new development pattern of "domestic cycle as the main body, domestic and international dual cycle mutual promotion", SABIC sword Refers to the future
