5 Must-Have Features in a Post Consumer Recycled Resin

In a circular economy, plastic packaging and products are designed to be compatible with the recycling system, reduce contamination, and enhance the stream of postconsumer resin (PCR) – which is then put back into new products. We call it Circular By Design™, and it all starts here.

If you are a larger brand, connect your sustainability and procurement teams to talk about incorporating PCR into products or packaging. You can also go directly to your package converter to talk about PCR in packaging and what options and innovations they can offer. If you’re a package converter looking for a PCR supplier, visit our Buyers & Sellers Directory or contact the APR.

Keep in mind that you can use PCR in your packaging and products, but also in work-in-progress items across your facility from pallets to totes to trash bags.

All state laws requiring PCR content stipulate that the PCR must be post-consumer, however certified post-consumer PCR is only required in certain state contexts to date. The APR encourages state legislators and regulators to incorporate PCR certification requirements to support North American recycled markets and provide full transparency. For more detail, see APR’s PCR Certification program.

PCR certification is required in California’s EPR law for any PCR used to meet the source reduction requirement, and for Oregon’s requirement for PCR in roll carts. Its requirement is discretionary for New Jersey’s recycled content law, and potentially for Maine’s.
