Is white plastic achievable with recycled materials?
Recycled plastics have grown in significance in the pursuit of sustainability. However, achieving consistent, bright colours—especially white—is challenging with recycled materials. This piece explores the possibilities, difficulties, and innovative solutions in producing white plastic from recycled resources.
Why is achieving white in recycled plastics so difficult?
Recycled plastics often come from a wide range of items, each with its own colour, composition, and life cycle. When remanufacturing plastic, this variety can make it challenging to standardise colour consistency. Regardless of these obstacles, the industry is moving in the right direction. Manufacturers are starting to realise the possibility of producing white plastic that satisfies both environmental and aesthetic requirements. That’s why we decided to create a white version of our recycled dispenser!
