Introduction:

ACI Plastics invest $10 million in New state-of-the-art Recycled Plastics Processing Facility, Michigan.

Features:

ACI Plastics also announced it will create 25-30 new jobs to operate the plant with wages from $15-$20 per hour. The company is looking to hire new employees beginning in May 2023 and is committed to prioritizing applications from Flint residents.

The company’s new state-of-the-art processing and cleaning technology will make ACI Plastics the largest processor of post-consumer recycled plastic film in Michigan.

The firm is partnering with Luxembourg-based Ravago – the world’s largest distributor of plastic resins serving more than 55 countries across the globe – to ship its recycled plastic pellets to business customers throughout the United States. The plastic film, such as shrink wrap and bags used in product packaging, comes from companies such as Meijer, Amazon and Walmart.

The recycled pellets from ACI Plastics will be shipped and turned into new products by Michigan-based consumer goods and automotive companies, including Petoskey Plastics and Grand Rapids-based manufacturer Cascade Cart Solutions, which makes plastic recycling carts and bins.
