[Case Study] Significant Improvement in Material Identification Accuracy! Meiwa Packs Co., Ltd.

Regardless of the location, anyone can easily and accurately identify plastic materials, improving the recycling collection rate to 90%!

We would like to introduce a case study of the introduction of sensors at Meiwa Pax Co., Ltd., a professional company in the field of flexible packaging using plastic films. At the company's main factory in Hyogo, the accuracy of material identification for the valuable trading and recycling rate improvement of multi-material waste films has been a challenge. After processing, the types of waste plastic films could not be identified, making it impossible to collect them separately. With the introduction of sensors, the recycling collection rate and valuable trading rate for polypropylene improved to 90%. [Previous Challenges] - After processing, the types of waste plastic films, such as those that have been laminated or printed, could not be identified, making it impossible to collect them separately for valuable trading or recycling. - The recycling collection rate and valuable trading rate for polypropylene remained at around 10%, necessitating reform. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
