Through a closed-loop recycling process, CTC buys post-industrial plastics from US-based suppliers. Once a product reaches the end of its lifecycle, the product is recycled to be repurposed in another project.
Quality and Testing
Quality is of the utmost importance to us. Once we purchase recycled plastics or recycled resins, it immediately heads to our ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 17025:2017 certified lab to be tested. Our in-depth testing process allows us to ensure you are provided with the highest quality material for your project specifications at a low cost.
