Meccanoplastica showcases INEOS recycled HDPE at PLAST 2026
- Live blow moulding at PLAST 2026 (HALL 22 - Stand B55/C56) will produce 200ml cosmetic bottles using mass-balance certified HD5802BM-R AR.
- Meccanoplastica will also display 4 litre bottles made with INEOS Recycl-IN rHD5603 containing 50% mechanically recycled post-consumer recyclate blended with engineered virgin resins.
- HD5802BM-R AR is made from pyrolysis oil converted to recycled ethylene/propylene at Lavera and processed into recycled PE/PP at Lavera, Sarralbe and Rosignano, certified under ISCC PLUS via mass balance.
- The recycled polymer grades are presented as solutions to meet EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation recycled-content requirements by 2030 and to reduce upstream GHG emissions.
Event and demonstration
Meccanoplastica will host a live blow moulding demonstration at PLAST 2026 (HALL 22 - Stand B55/C56) producing 200ml bottles for cosmetics using an INEOS HDPE grade produced via advanced recycling. The stand will also display 4 litre bottles made with an INEOS Recycl-IN hybrid HDPE that incorporates mechanical post‑consumer recyclate.
Materials and certification
The on-site bottles use HD5802BM-R AR, a mass-balance certified material derived from pyrolysis oil produced from hard‑to‑recycle mixed plastic waste; that oil is converted into recycled ethylene and propylene at Lavera and processed into recycled polyethylene and polypropylene at Lavera, Sarralbe and Rosignano, with ISCC PLUS certification. The off‑site 4 litre samples use rHD5603 from the Recycl-IN range, a compound of mechanically recycled post‑consumer recyclate (50%) and highly‑engineered virgin resins that can be attributed via mass balance to renewable or advanced recycled feedstocks.
Applications and regulatory context
Visitors will see processability and finish for cosmetics bottles and samples suited to blow moulded containers up to 10 litres and sheet extrusion. The recycled grades are positioned to help converters and brand owners meet EU PPWR recycled‑content mandates and reduce upstream greenhouse gas emissions.
