As the world grapples with the ever – worsening plastic pollution crisis,a green solution is emerging on the horizon, spurred by strict new regulations in the European Union.
EU’s Stringent Plastic Regulations Loom
On August 12, 2026, the EU’s most stringent “Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulations” (PPWR) will come into full effect. By 2030, recycled plastic content in single – use plastic bottles must reach 30%, and 90% of appliance packaging must be reusable. With only 14% of the over 500 million tons of plastic produced globally each year being recycled, chemical recycling technologies are seen as the key to breaking the deadlock.
The Plight of Traditional Recycling
Over the past half – century, global plastic production has skyrocketed 20 – fold, and it is projected to consume 40% of crude oil resources by 2050. Current mechanical recycling technologies, hampered by difficulties in separating mixed plastics and thermal degradation, contribute only 2% of recycled plastic. More than 8 million tons of plastic flow into the ocean annually, and microplastics have infiltrated human blood, highlighting the urgent need for change.
Bio – degradable PP Non – woven: A Sustainable Solution
Plastic products not onlyprovide convenience for people’s lives, but also bring great burden to the environment. JOFO Filtration’s bio-degradable Pp non-woven fabrics achieve true ecological degradation. In various waste environments such as landfi marine, freshwater, sludge anaero-bic, high solid anaerobic, and outdoor natural environments, it can be completely ecologically degraded within 2years without toxins or microplastic residues.
Physical properties are consistent with normal PP nonwoven .Shelf life remains the same and can be guaranteed.When the usage cycle ends, it can enter the conventional recycling system for multi-ple recycling or recycling meeting the requirements ofgreen, low-carbon, and circu-lar development.
