The Reborn Group is now a European recycler certified according to EuCertPlast standards. This certification body, funded by the European Commission, sets high standards for quality, traceability and environmental impact for plastics recyclers to determine better recycling practices. The Reborn Group is a member of the Plastics Recyclers Europe (PRE) association. Composed by more than 120 companies, it aims at protecting and promoting the activities of European plastic recyclers. PRE supports the transition towards a circular economy and encourages the harmonization of recycling standards in Europe. The Plastic to Charity initiative consists in making your employees collect their own LDPE waste packaging at home. Plastic sales revenues are then given to a charity of your choice. The collected waste are then upcycled. This initiative has a strong social impact and allows everyone to make a gesture for an association and the environment.
