Remote installation during the global pandemic Starlinger, like so many other machine and technology providers all over the world, tries to support its cus- tomers in every situation. “Machine installations and commissioning are definitely a challenge in these times”, continues Andreas Pechhacker. “With travel restrictions and quarantine periods in place in many countries we are glad that we have local techni- cians based all over the world. This bio PAC bioplastics MAGAZINE presents: Coorganized by supported by www.bio-pac.info #biopac Conference on Biobased Packaging 03 - 04 Nov 2021 - Düsseldorf, Germany Media Partner helped us already in the pandemic year of 2020 to get new equipment up and running as quickly as possible. In the case of EcoBlue, the technician from our Starlinger Thailand Office will be in charge for the installation of the new PET recycling line, with remote support from his colleagues in Austria, if necessary. All equipment has been tested and commissioned before ship- ment. Based on Starlinger’s plug & play principle, installation and com- missioning of the recycling system at the customer’s site can be carried out quickly and smoothly. This way we ensure that EcoBlue can take up pro- duction as soon as possible.” EcoBlue’s 3D Pure rPET for bottles EcoBlue’s 3D Pure rPET for PET films EcoBlue Limited is a recycling company based in Thailand that offers high quality rPET, rHDPE and rPP made from post-con- sumer and industrial waste. It is a pioneer in offering high quality rPET with FDA approval for the PET film application which has been proven to work well for films with 90% rPET content. EcoBlue’s high-IV bottle-grade rPET can be used up to 100% for clear bottles suitable for food contact. EcoBlue also works towards Circularity of Resources by bringing difficult- to-recycle materials like films and laminates into the recy- cling stream. This gives materi- als which would have otherwise ended up in landfills a second life and reduces their impact on the environment. www.ecoblue.co.th www.recycling.starlinger.com
