Welcome to the GAR Plastics Blog! Here we will make periodic posts talking about what’s going on in material news, pricing, demand, and other things within the recycled plastic world. As always, these are just our takes on the industry and are made to be a conversation starter with whoever cares to talk about these topics. Be sure to check in often to see our view on many of these topics current and past alike. We encourage you to reach out and engage in the conversations well as we build our catalog of topics! We will try our best to keep each entry at a bite-sized length to reduce the investment to stay up to date!
