EXTENDS LIFE
OF PLASTIC!

The commitment that NOVAPLAST undertakes towards the environment is materialized in actions that the company has placed and continues to place at the forefront. The reuse of waste and scraps resulting from its production cycle and the acquisition of Secondary Raw Material have always been at the center of NOVAPLAST's corporate policies. This is how the "Linea – 3R" and the "Linea – 2R" are born: lines of semi-finished products dedicated to companies producing brooms and brushes for household cleaning.

THE RECOVERY PROCESS OF NOVAPLAST

NOVAPLAST possiede la titolarità del marchio Plastica Seconda Vita da raccolta differenziata

PSV Brand

"Plastica Seconda Vita" is the first Italian and European brand dedicated to corrugated plastic.
It is a system of environmental product certification dedicated to materials and products obtained from the valorization of plastic waste from separate collection and from materials and products obtained from industrial waste.
This certifies the percentage of recycled material in the product, ensuring its traceability and quality.

Such certification also allows:

  • qualify the products and secondary raw materials;
  • recognize products eligible for Green Public Procurement;
  • make eco-friendly choices by citizens;
  • respond actively to the increasing demands for eco-friendly consumption and production;
  • actively promote the use of materials that align with circular economy policies.

Its specifications are recognized by Accredia: this means that it possesses all the characteristics of objectivity, accessibility, impartiality, and independence of labeling explicitly required by contracting authorities (art. 69 of the Public Procurement Code, Legislative Decree 50/2016); for the same reason, it is expressly mentioned in decrees containing the Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM) for Green Public Procurement as a means of verifying the conformity of the content of recycled plastic. It relies on the guarantees offered by sector-specific technical standards UNI UNIPLAST 10667 and verification by accredited certification bodies.

The ownership of the brand belongs to the association IPPR (Institute for the Promotion of Recycled Plastics) www.ippr.it, which grants its use to companies.

NOVAPLAST owns the Plastica Seconda Vita brand from RACCOLTA DIFFERENZIATA with Certificate No. 973/2023 – Issued on 13.07.2023 and is continuously monitored by IIP srl. It is authorized to affix the distinctive number 5660 on certified products with the "Plastica Seconda Vita" PSV/RD brand.

Circular Economy
and no longer Linear

The linear economy that we have known so far, based on unrestrained consumption and characterized by the "use and throw away" mentality, has over the years led to an inexorable exploitation and pollution of our planet.
NOVAPLAST, mindful of the principles of the circular economy, strives internally to minimize the waste generated in its business operations.
NOVAPLAST has been awarded the PRS Green Label recognition, as it has actively contributed to the reuse of PRS pallets with a recovery rate exceeding 65% of the used pallets.
