At Valera Recycling, we buy and sell plastics in order to properly recycle and put them back into the supply chain for reusability.

For over 30 years, we have been buying and selling plastics so they can be reused and go back into the supply chain. 

With an increase in global warm and landfill waste, we want to do as much as we can to reduce our carbon footprint, thus, our buying and selling of plastics for recycling. 

At our recycling facility, our technology quality control checks ensure that our plastic material is clean and free from toxins, making sure it’s of high quality to be released back into the supply chain.

We buy scrap plastics from businesses to be reprocessed at our plastic recycling facility. 

We encourage businesses in all industries to save their plastic recycling in order for us to buy and reuse them appropriately, it also maximises the value of the business’ plastic scrap.
