Waste plastics account for more than 65 percent and even 95 to 100 percent of raw materials but the qualitative indexes of over 200 kinds of products including all sorts of plastic containers, boxes and tubes are high.
The factory made it a rule to steadily acquire the knowledge of recycling through the sci-tech learning space.
Thanks to the creativity and enthusiasm of the producers, a number of equipment such as washer, dehydrator, dryer and crusher needed for recycling the waste plastics have been manufactured and a lot of plastic goods developed including different kinds of plastic containers, boxes and seats.
In this course, more and more inventors of the factory are presenting valuable technical innovation proposals.

The factory is still pushing ahead with recycling in a methodological way thoroughly depending on advanced science and technology, expanding successes.
