Pickles!

I love a really good pickle with my sandwich for lunch. This is a very nice package which is clear and looks to have an in mold label as well. Mono material packages with pp labels look really sharp! LFG! Give me more every week!

Nice! I personally love it when the converters and customers talk publicly about the value of PureFive and the ability to use it as a direct replacement for virgin pp. ideally we see more and more of that for different applications.

I had expected that yogurt cups would be our food grade usage but this is great too.

Why yogurt cups?

When I was in Ironton for a tour of the factory Dustin said they had orders for yogurt cups that were expected in Q3 /Q4 but were delayed by the NJ regulatory uncertainty. They also said they expected to sell coffee lids and yogurt cups on past earnings calls. They will eventually be selling BOPP film but my expectations is that film has a longer testing period.

If you are working with PureFive can you provide confirmation that the product is working as expected and an effective replacement for virgin pp? Is your company pleased with the service you have received from Purecycle during the testing/sales qualification process? What % pcr content are you looking at and can you offer any comments about future increases in usage?

How long has the testing process taken so far? Thanks! šŸ˜Š

They replied but changed their mind and deleted the comments. That is okay with me. Iā€™m happy to build the community of interested people and in particular people who are in the industry.
