Every plastic bottle that gets recycled needs to be sorted and cleaned correctly because it only takes a small fraction of contamination to turn an entire batch of PET into unusable trash. The handling and cleaning process of PET has to be so extraordinarily diligent or, off to the landfill it goes. We have seen this scenario play out in 2018 as China officially decided to ban the import of our contaminated, dirty post-consumer plastics which we were accustomed to shipping away in massive quantities.
Do plastic water bottles REALLY get recycled?
