VERBA and Ekon 40 years of circular cooperation

By 7 October 2020august 27th, 2022No comments

For 40 years, VERBA from Nijnsel and Ekon from Born have been working intensively together to improve the environment. The LDPE sheet materials from EKON used by VERBA for the production of feed containers for pig farming are made entirely from recycled PE. This recycled PE consists among other things of old caps of soft drinks bottles, agricultural plastic and PE materials from the industry. VERBA and Ekon have already processed many tens of thousands of tons of plastic waste into PE plates for VERBA pig feed containers. circular agriculture Minister Carola Schouten has deported. In any case, the pig fits perfectly with circular agriculture and economy because the pig is fed most of the food and feed from society via food trays. Since the Verba feed trays have been made of recycled material for 40 years, and are therefore circular, this fits perfectly with this vision.

In the accompanying film pover the circular collaboration between VERBA and Ekon it is clear to see how the PE plates enter VERBA, these plates are processed into feed trays and how the PE waste is collected and reprocessed by Ekon into new PE plates for the VERBA feed trays. A nice closed circular circle.

Ekon, VERBA and the VERBA customers contribute to a better environment!
