08 Nov 2021 --- UK polymer technology company Bright Green Plastics (BGP) says it has developed an additive capable of breaking down flexible plastics without the need for complex sorting processes. Branded Bright Fusion, the additive has been created through years of R&D by the company’s team of scientists, who claim it can bypass one of the most challenging and expensive hurdles the recycling industry faces when dealing with soft plastics: connecting polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP).
