The 2025 global recycled plastic market is booming, but sorting household plastic flakes—from shredded daily goods to crushed appliance parts—remains a costly bottleneck. Recyclers grapple with three big issues: messy resin mixes (PP, PE, PC, ABS, and dozens more), manual sorting accurac...
Challenges in Plastic Film Recycling
Plastic films such as LDPE wraps, packaging films, and agricultural films are among the most difficult materials to recycle. Their lightweight, flexible nature causes fluttering, entanglement, and unstable trajectories in conventional sorting systems. In mixed wa...
For plastic recyclers, high quality clear PET flake yields are often derailed by two critical issues: barrier bottles (the top contamination source) and fluorescent aged bottles (which hurt yield consistency). Traditional sorters waste resources chasing "0ppm yellowed PET flakes"—a useless goa...
Cities worldwide are grappling with a growing "waste siege"—as urbanization accelerates, municipal solid waste (MSW) generation surges, while traditional disposal methods like landfilling not only waste resources but also emit massive greenhouse gases. A 2025 industry report shows that...
A groundbreaking shift has hit the UK’s oral care industry—thanks to a collaboration between WRAP, Colgate, and Haleon, 100% of toothpaste tubes sold in the country are now recyclable, putting an end to what was once dubbed a “recycling nightmare,” according to The Gr...
On September 9th, the European Parliament finally approved new measures to prevent and reduce food and textile waste. As early as July 2023, the European Commission proposed revising EU waste rules, focusing on the issues of food and textile waste. According to official data, the EU generates ap...

Have you ever thought about it? The waste you throw away can be reborn as stylish fashion items! Over 100 million plastic bottles are discarded worldwide every day, yet only 9% of them are recycled. A large number of used textiles are also thrown away, with merely around 20% being recycled... In fac...
As early as 2022, the recycled PET industry grappled with yellow flake contamination—particularly "dark yellow flakes" caused by barrier bottles. It was at this critical juncture that DATABEYOND initiated independent R&D of its BARRIER spectral sensor. In July 2025, DATABEYOND further inve...
Yellowing in PET flakes stems from two root causes: suboptimal washing processes and contaminated feedstock.
I. Process-Induced Yellowing
Four key factors drive yellowing during washing: temperature, duration, alkali concentration (pH), and chemical formulation. Operator practices fur...
