09 Sep 2021 --- Viridor’s new Avonmouth Polymers Reprocessing Facility (PRF), near Bristol in the UK, has received a positive safety assessment from the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) for its food-grade PET. Once fully operational, Avonmouth will become the UK’s largest multi-polymer facility. Commissioning of the new plant – which puts polymers recycling and reprocessing under one roof – has begun. It will produce 18,000 metric tons of food-grade PET annually.
