Alliance launches film recycling directory 

The Flexible Film Recycling Alliance (FFRA) has launched the Plastic Film Recycling Directory, which aims to increase plastic film recycling rates across the U.S. by improving access to collection points and providing educational resources. 

To foster greater transparency, collaboration and progress in plastic film recycling, FFRA, an initiative of the Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS) is developing a verification program and will publicly share responses to all constructive inquiries. Within two years, FFRA will publicly share verified data on its progress. 

“We are excited to launch the Flexible Film Recycling Alliance’s Plastic Film Recycling Directory,” said PLASTICS VP of sustainability Patrick Krieger. “FFRA’s priorities include ensuring consumers know where to recycle plastic film and feel confident that their materials are being properly recycled.” 

Retailers and recycling depots collecting plastic film are encouraged to join the directory by contacting Kurt Kurzawa at [email protected]. For information, visit plasticfilmrecycling.org.
