Aliplast to add 25,000 tonnes of PE film recycling capacity at Borgolavezzaro

Sorema, the recycling-technology division of Italy's Previero Group, will supply a plastics washing line with integrated wastewater treatment for Aliplast's recycling site at Borgolavezzaro, Novara province. The expansion adds 25,000 tonnes a year of capacity to treat LDPE/LLDPE film and post-industrial scrap, with installation due by the end of 2027, and forms part of a wider Aliplast growth programme that also includes a new plant in Modena and an expansion in Poland.

Why this mattersThe line adds European mechanical recycling capacity for polyethylene stretch film at a time when packaging users need more recycled content.
