Sims Plastics

Sims Plastics, a division of Sims Metal Management, is a major recycler of post-consumer and post-industrial plastic scrap, specialising in high density polyethylene (HDPE), low density polypropylene (LDPE) and polypropylene (PP). It's recycling operations are based in Melbourne.

Sims Plastics works closely with government departments and industry to recycle plastics previously seen as an environmental concern, as well as a range of post consumer plstics.  Plastic is granulated, washed, blended and then extruded into specification bead-like pellets. The pellets are then sold as a raw material to be used in the production of new agricultural plastic film, plastic bags, automotive battery cases, agricultural drainage pipe and a range of other products.

Sims Plastics has a collection system available for industry and specialist advisers to advise on recycling solutions for plastic waste.
