More recycled plastic sheet is needed to fill demand
The plastic industry struggles with bad press over greater amounts of plastic in the land fills and oceans. This is understandable when the quantity of plastic products has skyrocketed. One of the biggest offender is the common shopping grocery sack. Most plastic materials are recyclable, and the demand has grown much faster than the supply, as industrial manufacturers are searching for recycled materials to use in their products.

PTFE sheet is also available as a reprocessed product for applications where the high purity is not critical, just the heat or wear resistance would remain.
