Episode 3: From in-house recycling to PCR processing
The injection molding industry on the way to a circular economy
There is a lot of talk about recycling, but how far are we really on the road to a circular economy? And what conditions need to be created in order to close other material cycles in addition to PET?
Susanne Zinckgraf's guests in the podcast studio are Markus Brunnthaler, owner and Managing Director of Miraplast Kunststoffverarbeitungs GmbH, and Michael Wittmann, Managing Director of the WITTMANN Group. They discuss the topic of recycling from two perspectives – that of the injection molder and that of the technology provider. Because one thing is clear: in the end, everyone has to be involved if the circular economy will be successful in the future. The industry as well as consumers and politicians.
