The Plastics Identification Code identifies the type of plastic resin a product is made from. The code makes it easier for re-processors to identify and separate used plastics for a range of new applications. Single and mixed materials can be recycled into new products, and used plastics can also be converted into liquid fuel or other energy.
TYPE OF PLASTIC | PROPERTIES Incl. Specific Gravity | APPLICATIONS: Virgin Grades | APPLICATIONS: Recycled grades MAJOR USE / minor use |

Polyethylene Terephthalate PET | |||
High Density Polyethylene HDPE | |||
Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride UPVC | |||
Plasticised Polyvinyl Chloride PPVC | |||
Low Density Polyethylene LDPE Linear: LLDPE | |||
Polypropylene PP | |||
Polystyrene PS | |||
