ARE BOTTLE CAPS RECYCLABLE?
This article will tell you what you need to know about recycling bottle caps. There are two types of bottle caps – the caps on plastic bottles, and metallic caps on beer bottles and similar bottles. You can recycle both!
Are Bottle Caps Recyclable on Plastic Bottles?
It is also due to the fact that the material that comprises the cap is recyclable, and there is no need to throw something out when it
can be recycled.
Recently the people in the recycling industry told us that we can leave the bottle caps on when we throw them in the recycling bin. Up until now, they were unable to recycle bottles with the caps on in an effective way.
Metal Bottle caps – Are Bottle Caps Recyclable?
Although they are metal, and can be recycled with metal cans, they will get lost in a recycling plants.
The recycling truck will deliver the materials it picks up at your curb to a material recovery facility.
The truck will dump all of the materials it has collected on to a cement floor.
The recyclables are then unloaded on to a sorting line.
What happens during the metal recycling cap process:
The sorting line is comprised of conveyor belts moving through different stations.
A huge magnet removes the soup cans and another piece of machinery removes the aluminum cans.
During the process, materials are separated by size and another machine removes the aluminum cans
What happens during the metal recycling cap process:
PUT YOUR CAPS AND LIDS ON IT, AND USE IT UNTIL IT IS FULL. THEN CRIMP IT CLOSED
AND RECYCLE IT. NOW THE CAPS WILL NOT GET LOST.
