🌍 Recycling Plastic vs. Virgin Plastic: Which Saves More Energy? 🌍
Today, on World Energy Efficiency Day, we’re spotlighting a critical truth: Recycling plastic isn’t just about waste—it’s a game-changer for energy conservation.
⚡ The Numbers Speak for Themselves:
-
Recycled Plastic: Uses 70% less energy than virgin plastic production.
-
Virgin Plastic: Requires 5,774 kWh of energy per ton (enough to power 6 homes for a month!).
At Hafez Group, every ton of scrap we recycle saves that energy—powering a greener future.
🗳️ POLL: Which material’s recycling saves the MOST energy overall?
A) Aluminum
B) Plastic
C) Glass
(Hint: Aluminum takes the crown, but plastic recycling still cuts 3x more energy than glass!)
💡 Why This Matters for Businesses:
Choosing recycled plastics isn’t just eco-friendly—it’s a strategic energy-saving decision. This year alone, Hafez Group saved 57,740 MWh of energy by recycling plastic waste—equivalent to:
✅ Powering 6,900 homes for a month.
✅ Offsetting 28,000 tons of CO2 (like planting 28,000 trees!).
