FAQ
Q:
Are all plastics recyclable?
A:
Yes, plastic bottles, containers, bags, coffee cups, hamburger "clamshells"
and plastic food wrap are all currently being rcycled in North American communities.
Recycling technology is well advanced, and markets for recycled plastics are
growing. Current household collection programs allo recyclers to receive post-consumer
plastics so they can clean, sort, process and sell recycled plastic material.
Also under development is the recycling of longer lasting products, such as
auto parts, TV sets, appliances, construction materials and the like. The challenge
is to develop sophisticates recycling systems to collect, sort and separate
these plastics for recycling, dand develop markets for recycled plastic products.
