The company already recycles post-consumer PET bottles and polyolefin packaging on two Starlinger plastics recycling lines installed in 2021.

The two new recoSTAR PET 165 HC iV+ PET bottle-to-bottle recycling lines have been installed at Srichakra’s recycling facility at the outskirts of Hyderabad, Telangana state, where the existing Starlinger lines – one with odor reduction technology for processing post-consumer polyolefins, the other one a PET bottle-to-bottle recycling line – are already in operation. With the addition of the two new lines Srichakra Polyplast has tripled rPET production capacities and now reaches a combined output of 42,000 tons of bottle-grade rPET per year.
