Through Braskem’s Investment, Ambipar Triciclo’s Retorna Machines Will Receive Polyethylene and Polypropylene Waste to Increase Recycling of This Type of Plastics

Ambipar Triciclo and Braskem, the largest producer of thermoplastic resins in the Americas, have formed a partnership to enhance the disposal of plastic products in a conscious and appropriate manner. From this initiative, all Retorna Machines, a technology of Ambipar Triciclo, will start receiving polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) packaging, the most widely produced plastic resins worldwide, which are present in many consumer plastic packages and everyday items such as yogurt bottles, sugar packets, beans and rice bags, margarine and ice cream tubs, shampoo, conditioner, fabric softener bottles, among others.

This action contributes to Braskem’s sustainable development goals, including the elimination of plastic waste. The company aims to produce 300,000 tons of thermoplastic resins and chemical products with recycled content by 2025 and one million tons by 2030, in addition to working to prevent 1.5 million tons of plastic waste from being sent to incineration, landfills, or deposited in the environment.

“To achieve the Circular Economy, it is crucial to engage consumers about proper disposal and the importance of recycling. In this regard, we invest in partnerships like this one with Ambipar Triciclo, which raise awareness about everyone’s role in building a more sustainable future. Moreover, this project will help us achieve our goals for plastic waste elimination, generating a positive impact throughout the production chain”, says Fabiana Quiroga, Director of Circular Economy at Braskem in South America.
