(Recycling Today) -- MRC Polymers, a Chicago-based plastics recycling company, has launched a new division known as Recycling Solutions. The new division seeks to help companies derive the highest value possible from their scrap.
The company will seek rigid plastics generated at industrial manufacturing plants, particularly those within the automotive industry.
Paul Binks, MRC Polymers CEO, says the company recovers post-consumer bumpers, which it grinds, washes and compounds into pellets using a proprietary process. The pellets are then used to manufacture new bumpers, he adds.
MRC's polymer compounds are high quality, engineering grade, cost-competitive alternatives to virgin resins.
MRC Polymers reclaims various grade thermoplastics from post-consumer plastic scrap (like car bumpers, large water bottles, advertisement sheets, etc.) and post-industrial plastic waste (such as CDs, DVD covers, etc.) and manufactures engineering-grade and commodity thermoplastic compounds.
MRC Polymers offers a full range of custom compound products and engineering plastic, among which are: PC/ABS (polycarbonate acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), PC/PBT (polycarbonate polybutylene terephthalate), PC/PET (polycarbonate polyethylene terephthalate),PET (polyethylene terephthalate).
