are you familiar with HDPE Scrap business? Recycling is a key concept of modern waste management and is the third component of the waste hierarchy.It is our attempt to slow and MAYBE try and fix some of the problems that we the human race have caused through many many generation at destroying our world to near extinction.Recycling materials used and being able to reuse these items instead of destroying more or our world is a good thing.I personally think it is too bad we had to get to the point that we are at to realize the danger in all the damage we have caused our planet.Please look up all you can on the subject and educate everyone you can.concept? It’s all about the energy used to make a can from scratch vs. one made from an existing can’s material.from scratch means digging the ore, processing the ore, refining it further, sending it to those who make the aluminum into sheets, sending it to those who use the sheets to make the cans, and sending it to the co. that fills the cans and then to those that distribute the product.Recycling an existing can uses so much less energy it is ridiculous. Melt down the old can, make into sheets, then into cans, fill ‘em up and send them out. Cutting out the Digging, the Processing and the Refining means an energy savings of about 90%.Kind of similar in regards to energy saving with plastics as well. We all use much more aluminum/tin/steel and plastics than can presently be reused/recycled into new cans and jugs given the level of technology we have now.We also only use a small amount of recycled plastic content in our new containers. Cans can use almost 95% recyclable content. you can visit hdpescrap.com if your looking for a regular supply of HDPE Scrap for recycling.
