From “old plastic” to new life

A discarded Coke bottle can be “transformed” into a water cup, reusable bag or even car interior parts. Such magical things happen every day at Zhejiang Baolute Environmental Protection Technology Engineering Co., Ltd. located in Caoqiao Street, Pinghu City.

Walking into the company’s production workshop, I saw a series of “big guys” standing there. This is the equipment for cleaning and crushing recycled PET plastic Coke bottles. Those bottles that once carried cool bubbles were initially sorted and cleaned by these special machines. Then, their new life began.

Baolute is an environmentally friendly machinery and plastic recycling enterprise with more than 20 years of experience in recycling PET bottles and other plastic bottles. “Not only do we provide customers with machinery and equipment, we also provide technical services, industrial consulting and planning, and even complete plant design, product analysis and positioning, etc., and are responsible for the overall development of customers. This is also a feature that distinguishes us from our peers.” Speaking of Baobao Chairman Ou Jiwen said with great interest the advantages of Green Special.

Crushing, purifying, and processing and melting recycled PET plastic fragments into PET plastic particles. This process not only reduces the amount of garbage, but also avoids environmental pollution from garbage. These newly refined small particles are then processed and finally turned into a new bottle embryo.
easy to say, hard to do. Cleaning is the key step for everything that can happen to these plastic bottles. “The original bottle is not completely pure. There will be some impurities in it, such as glue residue. These impurities must be cleaned before subsequent regeneration operations can be carried out. This step requires technical support.”

After more than 20 years of development, last year, Baolute’s revenue reached 459 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of nearly 64%. This is also inseparable from the efforts of the R&D team within the company. It is reported that Baolute spends 4% of its sales on technology research and development every year, and has a full-time R&D team and technical personnel of more than 130 people.

At present, Baolute’s customers are also expanding from Asia to the Americas, Africa, and Europe. Worldwide, Biogreen has undertaken more than 200 PET recycling, cleaning and recycling production lines, with production line processing capacities ranging from 1.5 tons per hour to 12 tons per hour. Among them, the market share of Japan and India exceeds 70% and 80% respectively.

A PET plastic bottle can become a “new” food-grade bottle preform after a series of transformations. The most important thing is to be remade into fiber. Through physical recycling and processing technology, Bolute allows every plastic bottle to be fully utilized, minimizing resource waste and environmental pollution.
