Product description
Advanced Post-Consumer Recycled Plastic Resins by MBA Polymers offers a cutting-edge solution to the pressing environmental issue of plastic waste in manufacturing. By producing high-performance post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic resins from end-of-life durable goods like electronics, appliances, and vehicles, MBA Polymers is revolutionizing the industry. Their innovative technology, utilizing hydrocyclone and proprietary sorting techniques, ensures purity levels comparable to virgin plastics.
This sustainable approach not only reduces the demand for new plastic production but also conserves up to 80% energy and avoids approximately 4.8 tons of CO₂ emissions per ton of PCR resin compared to virgin equivalents. With a diverse portfolio of resins, including ABS, PC/ABS, HIPS, and HDPE, MBA Polymers caters to large-scale manufacturers in automotive, electronics, and consumer goods industries through global distribution and licensing agreements.
Backed by over 40 patents, MBA Polymers guarantees operational excellence and product quality. Their processing capacity exceeding 150,000 tons/year across multiple continents supports industrial decarbonization and resource circularity. By enabling brands to reduce their carbon footprint while meeting rigorous performance standards, MBA Polymers is at the forefront of sustainable plastic solutions.
Key characteristics and environmental benefits
Key Characteristics
-
Specializes in recovering pure-grade plastics from complex waste streams—such as e-waste and auto-shredder residue—using proprietary, multi-stage technologies
-
Global presence with high-tech processing facilities in the US, UK, Austria, Germany, and China; processes over 135,000 tonnes of feedstock annually
-
Employs advanced separation techniques like density, colour, electrostatic sorting, extrusion, vacuum de-gassing, and melt-filtration to deliver ISO-standard recycled resins (e.g., ABS, PP, HDPE)
-
Holds over 40 patents in automated polymer separation; newest patent issued by the European Patent Office in January 2019
-
Long-term feedstock agreements (e.g., with EMR for automotive shredder residue and a JV for e-waste) ensure a secure, reliable supply for clients
🌍 Environmental Benefits
-
Uses just ~20% of the energy needed to produce virgin plastics—leading to an 80% energy saving and preventing 1–3 tonnes of CO₂ per tonne of virgin plastic replaced
-
Saving stats: for every 100 tonnes of recycled plastic, this avoids ~400 tonnes of CO₂ emissions and diverts ~200 tonnes of waste from landfills
-
One tonne of recycled plastic via MBA processes saves approximately 4.8 tonnes of CO₂ compared to virgin production
-
Recycling end-of-life vehicle plastics in the US conserves the energy equivalent of 28.5 barrels of oil, prevents up to 5.25 million tonnes of CO₂, saves nearly 40 billion gallons of water, and reduces landfill use by 52.5 million cubic yards annually
-
LCA studies show MBA’s recycled plastics have 4–10× lower environmental impact than virgin plastics and much lower impact than waste-to-energy incineration
-
Operates with a strong circular-economy mission: diverting ~110,000 tonnes of waste annually (≈62 “Big Bens” worth), improving resource efficiency, and fostering sustainable product design
