Recycled PET: assessing theimpact on the industry as a whole

- A closer look at the Latin American R-PET market – evolution of R-PET as an alternative source to virgin PET;

- Review of Brazilian and Mercosur legislation to R-PET onbottle to bottle applications (food grade and non-food grade);

- Perspective on challenges to increase the PET recyclingindex in Brazil

By Dr. Irineu Bueno Barbosa JuniorOwner of Global PET Reciclagem S.A.



Brazilian PET Recycling and it’s particularities: -Recycling index is now close to 60% of total consumed on packaging.

R-PET Final Uses in 2012




Brazilian PET Recycling and it’s particularities:

- Recollection policy is based on poor people and not in public systems;

- Economy growing and unemployment decreasing is leading PET Bottles

to higher recollection costs.

-National Solid Waste Policy has

not changed this reality until now;

- Probably the supply chain of raw

material will collapse and some final

uses will migrate to otheralternatives as raw material.

- New opportunities, see www.clubedareciclagem.com.br

Higher Production Costs



• BTB market to food contact

– ANVISA RDC 20/2008 established in

Mercosur the authorization to use PET-

PCR in direct contact with food;

– In Brazil ANVISA is the sanitary authority

responsible to evaluate all process of

registration of BTB PET-PCR Resin;




• BTB Recycling – Obstacles to development:

– Homologation process is new, confuse and highly

bureaucratic;

– The tree steps to a recycling company homologateit’s product are:




• 1st Step – Approve recycling technology used:

– Equipment may have FDA-NOL to allow the

technology, formalize the maximum concentration of

PET-PCR accepted;• Buy an equipment/technology already approved (doubt –

ANVISA may ask to do the challenge test again with Brazilian

raw material);

• Do the challenge test and conquer your own NOL (GlobalPET choice NOL # 133 / 2010).




2010 – FDA NOL # 133 Issued;

http://www.hhs.gov/



• 2nd Step – Approve Industrial installations to

food contact production:

– Main requirements:

• Food contact ANVISA’S standards to production machinesand building structure;

• Traceability of all raw material used;

• Quality control by gas crhomatography of all batches / lots

produced.




• 3rd Step – Registration of final product :

– Main requirements (to acid and non acid aqueous food

products):

• Total Migration tests (EN 1186-1, EN 1186-9);

• Specific Migration to Terephtalic Acid (SFS-EN 13130-2);

• Specific Migration to Mono and Diethylene Glicol (SFS-EN

13130-7);

• Gas Chromatography – Volatiles Profile;

• Sensory Analysis (ISO 13302:2003(E) and ISO4120:2004(E)).




• 3 steps to packaging producers: – Sanitary Authorization - Food contact ANVISA’S

standards to production machines and building

structure; – Traceability of all raw material used (PET-PCR resin,

preforms, bottles);

– Register of final product (same procedure that

recyclers have to do – New requirement: Registeronly Preform or Bottle).




• Food producers: – Use only registered packaging;

– To keep traceability documents of packaging;

– Label may contain:• Producer identification;

• Traceability code;

• The expression “PET-PCR”.

• So many bureaucracy generates…




• Our future? – R-PET Industry depends on the raw material offer:

• Depending of public politics specific to correct destination of

all recyclable material;

• PNRS going this way.

– Lower prices of Virgin PET / final products = Lower

possibilities to recycling in Brazil;

– Actual scenario:

• Some final applications (laminates & pipes) losingcommercial viability and returning to PVC/PP/PS;

• Larger producer of preforms has lower prices buying Virgin

PET.
