Extrupet Group Pty Ltd set up its operations in 2 000 to recycle PET bottles recovered from landfill sites. Extrupet is South Africas first modern recycling operation, dedicated to the recycling of post consumer PET bottles.The establishment of Extrupet was a clear indication that the PET industry was eager to address the challenge of recycling and the environmental problems created by the discarded PET bottles and containers.In 2001 the Minister of Environmental Affairs, Mr Valli Moosa decided that something needed to be done to combat the post consumer waste PET that was becoming a noticeable problem. Both government and industry recognised that the problem would inevitably worsen if left unchecked. It was then that the industry approached Extrupet to develop a strategy for the collection, processing and recycling of post consumer PET from the waste streams.
