Sorting and baling are the first steps in plastics recycling, and provide a basic guarantee for subsequent recycling enterprises.

The State Council has issued the "Action Plan for Promoting Large-Scale Equipment Upgrades and Consumer Product Trade-Ins." A wave of construction and renovation of baling stations and sorting centers has swept across the country. State-owned enterprises, capital markets, and leading companies are all getting involved.

According to incomplete statistics, there are about 10,000 plastic baling stations and sorting centers in China. However, they generally face challenges such as small scale, scattered distribution, and outdated sorting methods.

Strong policy support, sustained demand growth, and continuous innovation in technology and models are driving the construction of baling stations and sorting centers. Their models are constantly evolving and upgrading.
To promote the improvement of technology, operational models, equipment, profitability, and sorting capabilities of plastic baling stations and sorting centers, and to promote the evolution of policies and markets for "primary recycling" and "recycled materials for food contact," as well as to establish the technical conditions for digital tracing of plastics, and to promote the digital capabilities of baling stations, Beijing GuoJiaJiye Info Co., Ltd. and New Perspectives on Waste Plastics will hold the 4th Recycled plastic baling station and sorting center forum.
