Scrap plastic recycling facilities will recycle products that have been manufactured from plastic and have been used or excess plastic materials and supplies and return them to serve the production of new products.

During the survey period in Can Tho, we surveyed 4 scrap plastic recycling facilities and have a few interesting facts to tell you:

👉 3/4 of the facilities participating in the survey have an area of ​​less than 800m2.

👉 Scrap purchasing facilities are concentrated in the inner city, on the contrary, the distribution ratio of recycling facilities is concentrated in the suburbs.

👉 Plastic waste has been collected and recycled into new products to serve the consumption activities of inner-city residents.
