I can’t get anything other than an ad to play on that site and I don’t speak German so I wasn’t able to poke around - so I’ll take your word for it. I suppose there’s definitely a risk here, but my hope is that since the plastic is being repurposed for construction in a for-profit company, there’s more incentive to actually do it. The alternative being actually recycling the plastic back into its constituent forms, which I imagine is harder and less profitable. Is the latter what the documentary company was doing?
They claimed to be splitting the wastes and claimed to recylcle. The company then made deals with major companies so that they can claim, that they are recycling. The waste ended up in a landfill in a third world country. When the company was confronted they claimed it was a one time issue with a subcontractor. Business excuses as usual.
I hope the company u named is honest but I would have strong doubts. The industry is hella lucrative.
