[Case Study] Cost Reduction through the Valorization of Waste Plastics! Etria Co., Ltd.
We will introduce a case where it became possible to identify the material of waste plastics, leading to reduced processing costs and the creation of profits from the sale of valuable materials!
We would like to introduce a case study of the introduction of the "Ricoh Resin Identification Handheld Sensor" at Etria Co., Ltd., which develops and produces multifunction devices and printers. At the company's Gotemba facility, the monetization of waste plastics contained in the mixed waste discharged from the site was not progressing, making it difficult to promote efforts toward material recycling. With the introduction of the sensor, it became possible to identify the material of waste plastics, leading to significant cost reductions through reduced processing costs and profits from the sale of valuable materials. 【Previous Challenges】 - Unable to identify the materials of some waste plastics, resulting in waste disposal costs. - Difficulties in negotiating purchases with recycling companies due to a lack of specialized knowledge and technology for material identification. - The monetization of waste plastics was not progressing, making it difficult to promote efforts toward material recycling. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
