can you recycle compostable plastic?

In addition to composting of compostable bioplastic in dedicated plants, the proper recycling of bioplastic is done by mechanical and chemical methods.

If correctly separated from traditional plastic waste, bioplastic production waste can easily be recycled using the mechanical method, a field in which Gianeco has been operating for many years, successfully recycling bioplastics such as PLA, PBS, PBAT and blends of biodegradable plastics. 

While for the recycling of post-consumer biodegradable and compostable plastic waste, there are currently insufficient flows, except for some trials that have been carried out in closed collection loop (such as festivals, fairs, concerts and other events where it has been possible to distribute disposable items made exclusively of biodegradable and compostable plastic with subsequent collection and mechanical recycling. 

There are a number of chemical bioplastic recycling plants but they are currently not operating due to the limited availability of biodegradable and compostable plastic waste to operate similar plants.
