Coca-Cola Amatil Indonesia (CCAI) has recently formed a joint-venture agreement with Dynapack Asia to construct the most sophisticated state-of-the-art bottle-to-bottle grade PET recycling plant in Indonesia.
The partners aims to explore the planned facility’s economic feasibility, scale, location and size; end-to-end requirements; and possible incorporation into each firm’s value chains.
A joint project (JV) team has been formed to leverage each firm’s manufacturing and recycling process capability.
By 2022, the recycled plastic supply could decrease the demand for new plastic resin that Coca-Cola utilised by around 25,000 tonnes per year.
This move will support the National Action Plan of Indonesia in decreasing the country’s plastic pollution at sea by 70% by 2025.
