Certification Achievement
PureCycle Technologies has completed a third-party audit, earning the Association of Plastic Recyclers’ (APR) Post-Consumer Resin (PCR) Certification for its PureFive™ resin, HPP15-100. This certification confirms the resin's production from post-consumer sources.
Production and Application
The HPP15-100 grade is the primary material produced at PureCycle's Ironton Facility and serves as the base recycled content for all PureCycle's compounded resin grades. These grades are sought after for applications where introducing recycled content has been challenging.
Market Impact
APR PCR Certification provides third-party validation from ISO-accredited bodies, ensuring resin originates from post-consumer sources. This transparency supports a reliable post-consumer resin market, meeting increasing customer demand for certified recycled content.
Industry Perspective
Steve Alexander, APR President & CEO, commends PureCycle for certifying their resin, highlighting the importance of a strong PCR market for recycling success, circular economy enablement, and reduction of plastic waste and greenhouse gas emissions.
