Verdeco Recycling manufactures FDA-approved PET resins using what it calls a proprietary processing technology. When the Indiana plant opens it will be the company’s second U.S. plant — the company opened its first facility in South Gate in 2012.
“It has been an exciting process to come to this point,” says Alex Ofer, president of Verdeco Recycling Midwest. “Our expansion into The Hoosier State represents yet another milestone in the growth of Verdeco Recycling. The Terre Haute plant will allow us to better serve the needs of our existing clients, while also bringing new companies to the Verdeco Recycling family of customers.”
Verdeco adds that the location of the new facility will allow it to service markets throughout the Midwest.
“Verdeco Recycling is investing substantial capital to bring the plant up to the highest reliability, quality and cleanliness standards, thus further enhancing our state-of-the-art technology,” says Rick Blakeslee, Verdeco’s project manager. When fully operational the Indiana facility will produce more than 60 million pounds of FDA-approved food-grade recycled PET, bringing the company’s total U.S. capacity to more than 100 million pounds per year.
