Opportunity
Problem
How much plastic is in our solid waste? Plastic accounted for only 12% of 254,000,000 tonnes of solid waste created in 2007, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. That’s 30 million tons more plastic in a single year. According to some reports, plastic materials can take up to hundreds of years for them to be able the landfill. Participating in our plastics recycling program will allow you to join a network made up of Green-minded individuals and companies that recycle millions of tonnes of plastics every year across the United States.
According to reports, each 1 ton worth of plastic that is recycled saves 7 yards of landfill space. Recycling can help save the additional 80% of energy needed to make plastic bottles, containers, or other items. It is easy to see why plastic recycling is so important.
Baled plastics and especially plastic bottles have a high scrap price per ton. Aluminum cans are the only recyclable that is more profitable.
Solution
Replay Plastics plans to build a PET (polyethylene triterephthalate ) cleaning and refining station in the western United States. All 16 major North American PET recycle plants are currently in the eastern United States. It will start with a capacity of 46,000,000 pounds. The plant will use postconsumer bottle feed stock from Washington, Oregon, California. They currently collect over 200,000,000 pounds per year. The Company is vertically integrated. It will use most of its recycled material for its Packaging Division. Any surplus material (clean flake), that is produced, will go to outside companies. Manufacturers may sell the extruded sheet to them, who will then use it to thermoform it into high visibility packaging or in other high-value manufacturing operations. The strapping can be sold to large-packaging companies, such the lumber milling industry.
Market
There is currently no competition in the west for either the Company’s two divisions. Any production in the trading region remains locked and therefore not available for our target market.
It is essential that the Company can obtain post-consumer stock in order to be able to vertically integrate its operations and produce products that are in high demand by the western consuming industries. Without the cleaning and refining division, it would be difficult to source sufficient RPET flake resin at costs that would allow the Company to be competitive.
Concurrence
For many years there has been a strong market (sellers’′ market) for our products. This industry has a long history of buying based on quality, price and reputation of manufacturers, as well as freight costs, delivery times, and proximity to markets. In this market, availability is often more important than quality.
