Recycled PP - Ocean rPPGF

Reflow recycled PPGF is mechanically recycled from recovered used fishing nets and ropes in Northern Europe. They are sorted, shredded, washed and separated before being compounded with glass fibre. Our Glass fibre concentration is selected to eliminate warping issues often experienced with PP material and in particular recycled PP of this nature while ensuring it is the minimum possible concentration. This fibre reinforcement also significantly enhances strength and impact resistance. The colouring in granule and filament form is inherent as derived from the source, with no additional additives used. Between 500,000 and one millions tonnes of ghost nets are abandoned in the ocean each year with devastating impact on marine animals. Recycling this material both commercialises the recovery efforts and technology, helping nature habitats and preventing the production of new virgin plastic material, and associated GHG emissions.
