Bulgarian plastics film and packaging group Megaport has established a new Euro 1.84 mln (US$ 2.47 mln) recycling plant at Veliko Turnovo. Said to be equipped with the 'most advanced recycling equipment in the country', which was supplied by Austrian firm Erema, the facility is capable of handling up to 1.8 tons of material per hour and turning it into 1.2 tons of granulate, as per European Plastics News.
Located near the processor's main packaging and recycling unit in Veliko Turnovo and employing 30 workers, this new development will source polyethylene mainly from waste collections and processing plants in the urban areas of the country's capital Sofia as well as Varna.
Its construction was supported by the government's operational development programme headed "Development of the Competitiveness of the Bulgarian Economy".
