HDPE plastic and its ranking in the recycling world


The recycled plastic-
HDPE

and his ranking in the cycle world

The recycled plastic HDPE or in its full name - Hight-Density Polyethylene is classified as a level 2 plastic.
This classification comes from a plastic identification code system defined by the American Society for the Plastics Industry.
This system uses triangular symbols with numbers in them to make it easier to identify the different types of plastic for recycling.
The numbers indicating the different types of plastic from 1-7:

The first: PET
The second: HDPE
The third: PVC
The fourth: LDPE
The fifth: PP
The sixth: PS
The seventh: Oter other types of plastic not included in the previous classifications

HDPE plastic is classified as level 2 because of its unique properties such as:

High density - HDPE is characterized by a higher density compared to other plastics, which makes it stronger and more durable

Chemical resistance to weather conditions - HDPE is resistant to many chemicals and does not wear out easily in outdoor conditions

Easy to recycle - HDPE is easily recyclable and thus contributes to reducing environmental waste.

So the next time you see a product made of HDPE (level 2 in the recycling rating) you will know that you have dealt with the right material,
Both for the durability of the product you have chosen, and for the benefit of the planet.
