VINYL is a miracle material
A long-lasting reclaimable and recyclable polymer generally made from natural gas and salt, that can be made for hard, soft, rigid or flexible products and applications.
A SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION
Plastics and Vinyl are literally everywhere in our lives. These polymers were designed to last and are easily recyclable when not mixed with other materials (like any material to be recycled). Let’s not waste this miracle materials’ inherent longevity and handle it’s end of life in a respectful and responsible way by recycling it.
POST CONSUMER RECLAIM
We at Norwich Plastics have been doing post-consumer PVC reclaim and recycling since our inception back in 1987. Given that the vast majority of Post Industrial PVC waste is reclaimed and recycled, Norwich has spent decades growing volumes reclaimed from Post Consumer sources working with a variety of Vinyl related industries; companies and products, diverting end of life Vinyl materials from landfills into reusable recycled and reprocessed PVC compounds, pellets and powders (or PCR content).
MEDICAL & DENTAL VINYL RECYCLING
We have been working on our own with hospitals for decades but in 2020 at the height of the COVID-19 crisis, we partnered with the Vinyl Institute of Canada as well as Environment and Climate Change Canada and launched the PVC-123 Medical Vinyl recycling program. Since then we have continued to add new hospitals and facilities to the program and are growing our reclaim efforts to include more hospitals, and medical, and even dental facilities. Contact us for more details or to see how your medical/dental company/facility can participate.
