Meeting the Demand for Sustainable Polypropylene

The market is clear: consumers and brand owners are increasingly demanding sustainable plastic solutions that reduce waste and minimize the environmental impact of new plastic resin. This is a significant challenge, especially when it comes to polypropylene.

Traditionally, offsetting virgin resin with recycled content meant limited choices – primarily making black parts from mixed color regrind or black recycled pellets. This left brand owners who needed products in colors other than black with very few viable options, as naturally pigmented polypropylene items were scarce. When you factor in the critical need for food contact compliance, the available solutions become even more restricted.

Introducing PLASTEON: Innovation Born from Experience

Understanding these critical needs and leveraging Birch Plastics Inc.'s 20-plus years of recycling and compounding experience, we developed the PLASTEON PPC FDA Certified Sustainable grades. These innovative products were engineered to overcome traditional limitations by meeting three core elements:
  • 100% Recycled Natural Polypropylene: PLASTEON allows you to create any color plastic item without sacrificing sustainability, using truly 100% recycled natural polypropylene.
  • FDA Non-Objection Letter (NOL/LNO): Our PLASTEON grades hold a Non-Objection Letter from the FDA (NOL/LNO) for all food contact and cosmetic uses. This certifies compliance with the FDA Cosmetic Act 21 CFR 177.1520 & 21 CFR 174.5, ensuring safety and regulatory adherence for your sensitive applications.
  • GreenCircle Certification & 3rd Party Verification: PLASTEON is GreenCircle Certified with robust 3rd party verification, unequivocally proving that it is made from 100% recycled plastics. This certification provides transparent, credible assurance of its recycled content.
