Description
The project will contribute with innovation of a plastic waste recycling system. The subject of the project is the application of innovative technology in order to streamline the recycling of PET bottles.
The need arises from the current insufficient capacity of the company''s technological equipment, which cannot identify non-recyclable bottles and preparation of the environment and equipment of the Slovak Republic in accordance with EU law, which mandates that each produced PET bottle contains 25% recycled (crushed, washed and heat treated) so-called rPET regranulate.
At the same time, the implementation of the project will indirectly create jobs (also with the involvement of the population from marginalized Roma communities) and also a positive impact on the environment in the Slovak Republic by making it possible to recycle more PET bottles and also difficult to recycle bottles.
The project focuses on the target group - the general public, and secondarily on the marginalized Roma community and the support of its employment.
The applicant seeks to employ and educate members of the Roma community from a nearby Roma settlement at the applicant''s company and integrate them among its employees and ensure equal opportunities for them.
