FP International has reduced the use of virgin material by using 20 percent recycled HDPE in its plastic air cushions.

Plastic air cushions are used to get products from A to B intact. FP International, producer of the air cushions, now uses 20 percent recycled HDPE as raw material. By doing so, the company conserves virgin material. The client fills the material with air at the point of packing. The air cushions can be re-used or recycled as plastic waste.
