Vycom once again brings ‘Recycling Program’ to PRINTING United 2023

Highly innovative plastic sheet manufacturer Vycom returns to PRINTING United 2023 with its successful Vycom Recycling Program, where printed and unprinted rigid PVC and acrylic scraps and trim are reclaimed and repurposed. Visitors are encouraged to stop by the Vycom booth B9073 at the expo that has been scheduled to be held from October 18-20, 2023 at in Atlanta, Georgia. Designated collection bins will be stationed in select exhibitors’ booths including CET Color, Cutworx, Fujifilm, Kongsberg/MultiCam, Mimaki, Trotec Laser and Zünd, to collect rigid PVC and acrylic scraps and trim as part of their demonstrations.

Working with Shepard, the official event services provider for PRINTING United 2023, the waste materials will be collected from the bins and sent to Return Polymers, a leader in PVC recycling and processing. The materials are then reprocessed into other products, ensuring they do not end up in landfills. Since the exhibit material collection part of the Vycom Recycling Program started in May 2022, Vycom has collected more than 6,500 pounds of material from three signage and graphics trade shows.
