Environmental Recycling Technologies to showcase at K Trade Fair conference in Düsseldorf

Oct. 16, 2007 - PRLog -- Environmental Recycling Technologies Plc is pleased to announce that it will be showcasing its Powder Impression Moulding (PIM) processing technology at the K 2007 Trade Fair for Plastics and Rubber Worldwide, in Düsseldorf, Germany (24th – 31st October 2007).

PIM – the company’s patented technology – is the only plastics recycling process capable of converting co-mingled recycled plastic materials that normally would go to landfill or be incinerated into higher value, fully recyclable products for sale.

Already implemented in several industries, initial studies have shown the PIM process generates significantly less CO2 when using recycled plastics compared to using virgin polymers and 25% less than the next most efficient recycling plastic forming process. Other benefits include: lower tooling & product costs; large scale moulded products resulting in applications with fewer manufacturing stages; enhanced mechanical, thermal and sound insulating properties, with all materials being fully recyclable.

Niall Mackay, CEO of Environment Recycling Technologies, commented:
“We are delighted to be at K 2007. We believe this to be an excellent opportunity to broaden awareness of the significant efficiency & recycling gains and cost reductions that can be delivered by our technology, allowing businesses to improve their environmental footprint whilst enhancing product value.”

Environment Recycling Technologies will be demonstrating its PIM product at stand number A25, Hall 5.

In addition, the Company has recently won two significant industrial awards for its Eco Sheet, designed in conjunction with Bovis Land Lease: the Chartered Institute of Building Award for Innovation and the Green Construction News Award for Green Innovation in Construction Materials.
