We join ALPLA in celebrating World Environment Day with great news!
Did you know that every year more than 2 billion tons of garbage are generated in the world? Of that amount, 12% is plastic! And the worst thing is that only 9% is recycled.
At Vida Circular, we joined ALPLA, a world leader in plastic packaging, to celebrate World Environment Day with a big announcement: the construction of a third PET recycling plant in Mexico!
This is a big step towards a greener future! The new plant, which will be operational by the end of 2024, will have the capacity to process 50 thousand tons of post-consumer PET per year. This means that we will convert thousands of plastic bottles into new products, preventing them from ending up in landfills or polluting the ocean!
