If PLA scrap of the production process is not contaminated by other polymers, PLA is pretty recyclable by mechanical recycling. There are already several companies who are performing mechanical recycling of PLA waste, mainly from post-industrial or closed-loop environments.
Gianeco s.r.l. provides an excellent service to collect and increase value of PLA industrial scrap. Gianeco collects and recycle PLA from thermoforming process, flexible film, fiber in all forms (lumps, regrinds, flakes, bales, rolls). Then PLA scrap is grinded and pelletized to obtain the recycled PLA pellets for 3D printing, compounds and other applications. For further information about our recycled PLA, don’t hesitate to contact us.
