Petoskey Plastics received a No Objection Letter (NOL) from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) confirming the capability of its secondary recycling process to produce post-consumer recycled linear, low-density polyethylene (PCR-LLDPE) material that is suitable for food-contact application.

The PCR-LLDPE material uses up to 100% recycled content for use in contact with Food Type VIII (dry foods with no surface fat or oil, including raw fruits, vegetables and shell eggs), for frozen refrigerated, and room temperature conditions of use.

Apart from FDA’s approval, Petoskey Plastics’ GreenPE Polyethylene Repro – H-RM-RE0012CL resin is certified by SCS Global Services for recycled content with a minimum of 99% post-consumer recycled (PCR) polyethylene.

The company offers six different GreenPE recycled polyethylene resins, four of which are SCS Recycled Content certified for different percentages of post-consumer and pre-consumer recycled polyethylene content.

Petoskey Plastics first began in-house recycling in 1978, in Petoskey, Michigan. Today, it operates a recycling facility in Hartford City, Indiana, where it produced over 35.6 million pounds of recycled resin in 2022.
