Perhaps the greatest challenge in recycling is of a logistic nature ; only when that is see can we truly speak of a sustainable chemical chain . " For most pots , we have this reasonably well sort out by now , consumers can cast away of them with their wastefulness . The difficultness lies in getting all the tray back from grower and retail merchant so that they can be industrially work on . However , we are well on the way to organizing this more and more efficaciously . “This is what John van der Maarel and Francis Schrama , who are the sales director and marketing communications medical specialist at Modiform , tell us . The company , which is one of the major players in the product of plastic trays and pots as well as in plastic recycling , has typeset itself exactly this object glass : ' end the cloth loop ' . Moreover , the ship’s company is not only working towards a in full closed loop , but also wants to take a leading part in making our industry more sustainable . No lack of experienceNow , given the experience in recycling and production , there is something to be said for that . The party started , over 40 years ago , as a producer of thermoformed packaging for bakeries , which even then were produced from ego - collected recycled fabric . So , the company has mountain of experience in the ins and out of collecting , cleaning , and convert the shaping waste stream into young textile , and there are peck of starting points for looking for innovation . The Closed Loop Commitment is therefore an umbrella under which a diversity of projects fall , from logistics to design and from production innovation to networking with every imaginable liaison in the chain .

A product offered with this certificate guarantees 100 % recyclability . In improver to a large component part of all products made from PS , Modiform already carry this on its label and on the ecoExpert , the product made from newspaper pulp magazine . give up NIR is jargon for " no more black . " Black plastic is insensible with infrared , a proficiency used to pick plastics from the thriftlessness stream , because fatal absorbs all radiation and reflect nothing , as is necessary . As a result , the material can not be mechanically picked and disappears to the incinerator or landfill . Horizon 2025Ultimately , the goal is to expend no Modern charge card at all , an dream that is rig out inHorizon2025 . " Over 90 % of all our products are already made from recycled material , " explains John , " but those last few percentages are of course of instruction the most difficult . " The vision also includes , among other things , that the company wants to recycle the integral product volume that it brings to food market in condition of plastic , and on top of that go back an additional 20 % from the environment . Varying legislationYet it remains complicated , even if everything were recover and neatly separated , countries dissent in legislating , in ambition , or just in wishes . An lesson is polythene terephthalate ( PET ) in England . In England , the focus in recycling is strongly on PET , and not on PS , which is what the post - consumer chain in The Netherlands , Modiform included , prefers . " In England , they do n’t desire anything more from PS , whereas we are thankful for PET , because it disrupts our recycling . “One addressModiform recycles PS . This is done at the main locating in Leusden , just below Amersfoort in The Netherlands . Film is made from the recyclate at two other locations in the res publica . Then , using thermoforming , an endless variety of tray and pots are made - also from PET , mostly for British customer . In France , they have another manufacturing plant where they produce the shot - molded potful . Finally , Modiform can also print the trays and raft if ask , so that the client ' packaging demand can be taken care of totally .
