Mixed Plastic Injection

[brandon]

If i have a avenue for the mixed plastic i will be washing the plastic first so there is not metal residue

identifying the plastic types is near impossible.. unless there is a magic trick for sorting/identifying it

we are currently throwing 30-40 tons a month of this plastic into landfills i just believe there is nothing we can do with it its a real shame and very hard on our environment.

I have heard that such plastic could be used as filler for ....I want to say roofing tiles..... not sure now..... I heard this 5-10 years ago. It makes sense not to put it in a landfill if you don't have to .... we, as molders, can't make good use of it, but I think if you look elsewhere, somebody would like it, maybe even purchase it, as a filler to reduce their material costs.

I believe there are companies that use scrap plastic to make things like park benches. Don't know if it has to be a certain type. That's one avenue to check out.
