Recycling of natural plastic
Recycling – Natural plastic is very easy to recycle
Recycling of bioplastics - sustainable, resource-saving - NaKu's vision is to combine recycling and organic with its products. Natural plastic should first and foremost be recycled and is also very easy to recycle. Even if the quantities are currently very small, it is important to combine the two supreme disciplines of sustainability - regrowth and recycling. That's why we prefer to see our NaKu products in the yellow bag or in the plastic collection. With our products, both sorting and recycling and, in the last step, the recovery of the molecular building blocks work very well. This depolymerization means the circular management of raw materials and is easier for us with lactic acid in order to avoid a loss of quality.
Our plastic carrier bags are compostable and made from renewable resources. Our bags are therefore ideal for collecting organic waste due to their size and thin appearance. In this case, the bag can then be composted together with the waste and is still useful after its end of life. However, if our compost collection bags are thrown away empty, disposal in the plastic collection is more suitable, as the bag is recycled instead of composted. Our NaKu bottle is also in very good hands in the plastic collection and can therefore be included in the recycling process.
We think recycling makes more sense than rotting and we wish that raw materials will be used again in the future, which is why recycling will play an important role. Unfortunately, the recyclers still lack the quantity and material flows.
