2016 National Postconsumer Plastics Bottle Recycling Rate Report Overview - Tuesday, November 7, 2017
Background:
The 2016 National Postconsumer Plastics Bottle Recycling Rate Report, a collaborative effort of APR and The American Chemistry Council (ACC), quantifies the amount of high density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene (PP) bottles collected for recycling, as well as the rate of recycling of those bottles. This study also includes postconsumer recycling values and comments for polyethylene terephthalate (PET). This webinar served as an Executive Summary, featuring data and analyses from the report. It also included data from the Report on Postconsumer PET Container Recycling Activity in 2016, a collaborative effort of APR and The National Association for PET Container Resources (NAPCOR).
