PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled Resin)

Post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin is an eco-friendly plastic alternative made from reprocessed plastic waste, reducing environmental impact and promoting sustainability. Common types include rPP (recycled polypropylene), rLDPE (recycled low-density polyethylene), rLLDPE (recycled linear low-density polyethylene), rHDPE (recycled high-density polyethylene), rPET (recycled polyethylene terephthalate), and rABS (recycled acrylonitrile butadiene styrene). PCR resins are widely used in food and beverage packaging, medical packaging, agricultural films, and consumer goods, offering durability, flexibility, and environmental benefits while maintaining industry performance standards.
