Mixed Soft Plastic Recycling
Turning problem plastics into new opportunities
Soft plastics are one of the fastest-growing waste streams — often difficult to manage and commonly sent to landfill. At Waste Choice, we make it simple. Our Mixed Soft Plastic Recycling Service accepts a wide range of coloured films, wraps, and packaging (excluding PVC) and gives them a new life through advanced processing and recycling partnerships.
