Our PET recycling facility in Tanzania uses advanced systems to transform used bottles into high-quality flakes. The Boretech Washing Line cleans the bottles by efficiently removing dirt, labels, and caps. Tomra optical sorting equipment then separates non-PET materials for a refined output. This process helps us deliver consistent PET flakes for reuse in various industries. We keep our operations lean to lower environmental impact while maintaining high efficiency. Our commitment to innovation drives us to continuously improve our recycling methods for a greener future.
Plastic waste poses serious environmental threats — clogging landfills, polluting water bodies, and endangering wildlife. At Sita Recycling, we are dedicated to promoting post-consumer recycling to foster a circular economy and sustainability. We collect plastic waste through partnerships with:
This ensures a steady supply of recyclable materials while supporting local livelihoods and recognizing the vital role of waste pickers in the recycling ecosystem.
PET bottles are gathered from various sources including curbside programs, recycling centers, and deposit systems to begin the recycling journey.
Materials are carefully separated by color and type while removing non-PET materials like caps and labels to ensure processing purity.
Sorted bottles undergo thorough washing to eliminate adhesives, residues, and contaminants that could compromise the recycling quality.
After cleaning it is mechanically cut into small uniform flakes, creating the raw material foundation for the next processing phase.
Shredded flakes are processed through hot or cold washing methods depending on the specific requirements of their intended application.
The flakes are sorted again using air classifiers, optical sorters, or manual checks to remove any leftover labels, caps, or non-PET materials.
Once the flakes are clean and sorted, they are dried and packed into bags or containers ready for transport or reuse in manufacturing.
Each batch is analyzed in laboratory conditions for viscosity, moisture, color, and contamination levels to guarantee international quality standards.
High-Quality Flakes. Lower Environment Impact
Our recycled PET flakes meet quality standards and perform like virgin material. By using recycled PET, manufacturers can cut down on plastic waste and reduce their environmental impact. It’s a practical and reliable alternative to new plastic.
Benefits:
Sita Recycling is at the forefront in the fight to tackle plastic pollution. We prevent thousands of tonnes of plastic waste from reaching landfills and oceans every year. We are actively expanding our collection network and welcome collaborations with new partners.
