đź’Š Can PVC pharmaceutical blister packaging be recycled?
♻️ Yes – and Europe is showing how.
Our new video presents the work of VinylPlus® PharmPack to advance the circularity of #PVC pharmaceutical blister packaging.
It shows how established mechanical recycling is being complemented by advanced dissolution-based recycling, which can recover high-purity PVC from PVC/aluminium blister waste.
The breakthrough has now been confirmed in a peer-reviewed scientific article, with recycled PVC successfully used to produce new pharma-grade blister film at demonstration scale.
