Why D6’ s mechanical recycling processes are the quiet catalyst for the circular economy
Since its founding in 2014, D6 Inc.( D6) has grown into a leader in sustainable packaging and domestic mechanical recycling with an expanding operational footprint across North America. Often described as‘ the quiet catalyst of sustainable innovation’, D6 focuses on closing the loop for food packaging by receiving, cleaning, and upcycling post-consumer materials into highquality, food-grade packaging products, while maintaining transparency and environmental stewardship throughout the process.
While food packaging recycling is frequently overshadowed by the recovery of aluminum cans and plastic bottles, the opportunity to redirect billions of pounds of plastic away from landfills remains significant. Materials such as thermoformed PET containers, polypropylene packaging and flexible plastics represent a substantial portion of the waste stream yet historically have lacked the infrastructure necessary for true circularity. D6 works to address this gap by collecting and processing materials including polyethylene terephthalate( PET # 1), polypropylene( PP), low-density polyethylene
