In today’s world, sustainability and environmental responsibility are more crucial than ever. At ASEPT, we are proud to contribute to these efforts through our innovative recycling processes. As part of our ISO certification and commitment to quality, we have developed an approach to managing plastic waste that has been overlooked in our product quality control.
Turning Waste into Opportunity
Rather than discarding or incinerating these plastics, we repurpose them into new, high-quality products. This not only reduces waste but also minimizes our environmental footprint. By reusing materials that would otherwise be considered waste, we are able to create a circular economy within our production line.
Our Process
Our internal processes ensure that the plastic produced and do not meet the quality control, is evaluated for potential reuse. Plastics that do not meet our stringent quality standards are collected and processed through a series of steps designed to transform them into usable materials. This includes cleaning, shredding, and re-molding the plastics into new forms. The result is a range of products that are both sustainable and of high quality.
Commitment to ISO Standards
Our commitment to ISO certification drives us to continuously improve our processes and ensure that our products meet the highest standards of quality and sustainability. This initiative is an example of how we work, demonstrating our dedication to environmental responsibility and innovation.
The Impact
By reusing neglected plastics, we are not only reducing waste but also conserving resources and energy. This initiative has a positive impact on the environment, helping to reduce pollution and promote sustainability. Since no single company can tackle everything alone, it’s a collective effort we all need to contribute to. As our Quality Manager, Jonas Nilsson, puts it “By reworking materials in a responsible way, we utilize resources to manufacture first class products, rather than just downstream waste.”
Every piece of plastic has potential
At ASEPT, we believe that every piece of plastic has potential. Through our dedicated efforts and innovative processes, we are transforming waste into valuable products, contributing to a more sustainable future. This initiative is a testament to our commitment to quality, sustainability, and continuous improvement.
