Vanden Recycling to Increase ‘Certainty’ Around Plastics Quality
Vanden Recycling invests in advanced testing and analysis technologies to further increase ‘certainty’ around plastics quality.
Global plastics recycling business, Vanden Recycling, has hit the ground running in 2023 by introducing advanced testing technology, further enhancing its support to customers who need certainty around the quality of their recycled plastic feedstock.
The investment includes a new laboratory in Turkey containing high-resolution and high-accuracy equipment that aids in the analysis of recycled plastic and new material scanning equipment for its Australian, European and UK operations.
These enhanced testing capabilities now allow Vanden to qualify material samples much faster, providing a more accurate assessment of material quality for customers.
This includes the identification of plastic types, combinations of plastics, contaminations, multi-layers, melt flow rate and density which means even more certainty can be provided around material performance and consistency, as well as more accurate alignment with recycler or manufacturer requirements.
The investment coincides with a recruitment drive to bring further technical expertise into the business to underpin Vanden’s core purpose – ‘Delivering Certainty’ to the recycled plastic supply chain.
Damien van Leuven, Vanden CEO, said: “The investment decision to expand technical capabilities globally is based on our goal to support end users who need certainty around feedstock quality.
“Vanden`s global presence with teams on the ground, working closely with suppliers and customers, enables us to access all types of plastic waste and recyclables. Correct identification of material quality at the source and the subsequent control through the production process is the main factor affecting the success of the plastic re-entering the supply chain.”
Recognised as one of the world’s leading plastics recycling companies, Vanden recently celebrated 17 years of supplying recycled plastic to manufacturers across the globe and has ambitious plans for further growth during 2023 and beyond.
Global HR Director Matt Haynes added: “To meet our ambitious growth plans, we are hiring across all our teams in every location. This industry is growing, and we are looking for passionate, driven, and entrepreneurial people to join our values-based company. Check out our Vanden Careers to find out more.”
