This recycled resin can then be used for manufacturing various plastic products like trash bins, toilet cabins and even paint among others.

Europe finally is facing up to the same stark environmental and economic realities of producing goods in increasingly massive volumes that Japanese industry accepted more than two decades ago and has shaped Japan’s resource-aware approach to packaging production and design. Trailing behind but with Japan’s experiences to learn from, Europe now has an action plan and measures to nudge the Union’s 28 countries – or at least 27 of them – towards a manufacturing model based on a circular, rather than linear, model.
