Over 50% is collected in Asia, with China alone representing 28% of the global collection and consistently having the highest collection rate globally. Western Europe collects a further 18% and North America 13%.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Incentives<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The reason for China\u2019s success is due to the fact that PET bottles have an immediate re-sale value as a result of the country\u2019s huge PET processing industry, but further financial incentives have also been introduced. In Beijing in 2012, for example, reverse vending machines, which pay out subway credits in exchange for returned bottles and containers, were introduced across the city.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By contrast, in Western Europe and North America, collection is still very much down to conscientious citizenship, although the infrastructure is in place to make recycling very easy and the reverse vending concept has even been adopted by the Aldi supermarket chain in select cities in Germany.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">China, however, is also a net importer of PET waste and processes almost half of all that is collected globally.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An estimated 67% of this global waste is recycled back into fibres, with smaller amounts turned into PET for the blow moulding industry, sheeting and strapping.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2016, PCI Wood Mackenzie forecasts that China will recycle around 4.2 million tons of PET waste and over 90% of it will be re-used as fibre. But currently the industry is being severely impacted by weak demand for its output, as well as by the recent enforcement of stringent environmental controls on the rPET manufacturers in China.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe value of rPET continues to fall in China; while processing costs and energy prices go up; with the result that profit margins are narrowing all the time,\u201d says PCI Wood Mackenzie consultant Angie Lu. \u201cAs a result, many PET recycling operations are moving their plants to the west of China; in order to keep costs down, or even offshoring their operations.\u201d<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Automotive success<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-25477 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.textilegence.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/geri-donusturulmus-pet-textilegence1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"324\" height=\"179\" \/>Nevertheless, as will be evident at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.index17.org\/en\/\">INDEX\u212217<\/a> in Geneva, many of the leading nonwoven producers continue to incorporate rPET into their collections, especially for use in the automotive sector.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A new all-PET nonwoven, made by Foss, containing up to 75% rPET; for example, is proving popular with automotive brands for thermoformed interior parts; such as trunk liners, insulation components and even exterior wheel arch liners.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The product is successfully replacing traditional composites comprising of a polypropylene plastic sandwiched between a needlepunched PET face fabric and a PET scrim; which brings a number of advantages.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe new Foss single-fibre structured nonwoven eliminates the need to have further insulating materials between the panels and the car body; to prevent noise and vibration,\u201d says Richard Stockton, sales and marketing director for Warren Nonwovens; which represents Foss in the UK. \u201cIt\u2019s also much lighter than the composite it\u2019s replacing. For the same performance, we can replace a 1,800 grams per square metre product; with one that weighs 1,200 grams per square metre. It\u2019s a highly extensible product too \u2013 up to 150 per cent \u2013 and of course, it\u2019s 100% recyclable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Foss Eco-fi polyester fibres are made from 100% certified recycled plastic PET bottles; and the US company now has the capacity to keep billions of them out of landfill. Eco-fi fibres are chemically and functionally almost identical to virgin PET fibres.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>European leaders<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In Europe, nonwovens manufacturer Freudenberg now recycles more than 377 million PET drink bottles each year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With two recycling plants in Italy and a third in France; around 70,000 tons of this output go into European nonwovens production; primarily for use in automotive headliners, and to a lesser extent filter media; with the remaining 10,000 tons shipped to the company\u2019s plants in the USA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wellman International, another key figure in the field; recycles some 2.2 billion plastic bottles annually in the production of its fibres; and is Europe\u2019s largest recycler of PET bottles; and also the leading European producer of PET staple fibre. End-use markets for its products range from; automotive, insulation and filtration products to home furnishings and personal care items.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A recent fibre capacity expansion at the company\u2019s plant in Cavan, Ireland; has provided it with the ability to provide finer recycled PET fibres down to 1.7 dtex; which will enable the company to cater to a broader range of needs in personal care; in areas where fineness is particularly important, such as spunlace.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The company has recycling plants in Holland and France; where very effective structures for recycling, backed by legislation<strong>,<\/strong>\u00a0are now in place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Of the 10.2 million tons of nonwovens produced globally in 2015, around 2.3 million tons were based on polyester PET staple fibres and an estimated 32% of this output \u2013 725,000 tons \u2013 was also made from PET fibres that had been recycled from drinks bottles, (known in the industry as rPET).
