Germany: PET bottles must use 25% recycled material

Chinese entrepreneurs who recently went to Germany to participate in the Economic and Technological Cooperation Forum with the Chinese Premier, submitted the latest Chinese polyester (PET) materials to their German counterparts, and their product quality was highly praised by the German industry.

At present, most of the world's major carbonated beverages, fruit juices, dairy products, tea drinks, mineral water and other food and beverage packaging materials is called a polyester (PET) material, this material is taken from petroleum. According to statistics, the annual demand for PET bottles in China is as high as 3 million tons, which consumes more than 18 million tons of oil, and has also caused tremendous environmental pressure. Some environmentalists say that if everyone finishes drinking a bottle of beverage and discards the bottle without recycling it, the Earth is likely to be submerged by waste PET bottles.

Zou Zuyu, a well-known environmentalist and vice president of the China Packaging Federation, said that futurists in the 1980s had predicted that the emerging industries in the 21st century were garbage disposals, and that this problem has now become urbanization in the 21st century and globally. To recognize recognized social issues. Resource utilization, especially the secondary use of resources, is emerging as a very mainstream emerging industry in foreign countries.

In an interview with reporters, Zou Zuyi picked up a bottle of Coke bottle marked with a foreign language and pointed to the number of “25” on the bottom of the bottle. The bottle was produced in Germany and 25 percent was recycled.

According to reports, many countries, including Germany, have stipulated that enterprises that use PET raw materials must use 25 percent of the recycled materials, otherwise they must pay double tax. In order to save resources, many developed countries have developed PET packaging recycling technology. As early as 1991, recycled PET chips have been used for food packaging.

In the world’s largest single-line capacity food-grade recycled PET plant in Tianyi Airport in Shunyi, Beijing, Zou Zuyi, Vice President of the China Packaging Federation, told reporters that according to statistics, the total amount of discarded PET bottles is generated annually in Beijing alone. Up to 150,000 tons, about 6 billion waste plastic bottles, equivalent to 600,000 tons of oil.

He said that waste is a secondary resource. For the urban economy, it is necessary to change the concept of industry in which the city industry relies only on external raw materials for processing. It is necessary to transform what is produced in Beijing, especially after large-scale consumption, into a new economy. Resources and power must use renewable materials. Therefore, social screening and reuse of waste is a social responsibility.

The environmental protection expert said that circular economy is said to be three aspects, the first to reduce, the second to reuse, some can be recycled and can be reused, and the third is to recycle resources. China is a developing country. We must pay attention to this issue if we are to follow the path of sustainable development.

Currently in China, all PET bottles are made from raw PET raw materials that are extracted from petroleum. With the development of technology for remanufactured PET chips in China, the hygiene indexes of recycled PET chips have met the national health standards for raw PET chips. They have been reviewed by the US FDA or the European Life Association, and recycled PET raw materials will be used for food packaging.

Analysts believe that although China’s National Development and Reform Commission has positioned this food-grade recycled PET Chinese company as a circular economy model enterprise, China’s circular economy is still not smooth and the development of circular economy requires a social responsibility.
