United Plastic Recycling, Inc. was established in 1991 to provide full service thermoplastic recycling. This makes our company a pioneer in this now very popular industry. Over the years, plastic recycling has become more commonplace and a popular concept worldwide for many reasons. We have adapted to new markets and usages in plastics recycling in the past 20 years, but our core business has always been to purchase scrap plastic in various forms and process it so that it can be used again.

Our scrap vendors rely on us to provide a continuous outlet with competitive pricing. Our customers rely on us to supply them with a clean, economical recycled feedstock suitable for a variety of end uses.

UPR’s processing capabilities enable us to handle  and recycle plastic scrap in various forms – such as bales, rolls, bulky parts, purges, regrinds, ect.  We have over 600,000 square feet of warehouse space containing state of the art pelletizing lines, grinders, blenders and shredders along with a resin washing system.

We also offer many corresponding services such as transportation, domestic, and export brokerage, toll grinding, and pelletizing. With our newly expanded capabilities, we can offer plastics recycling to a broad range of industries. We also have a processing facility in Monterrey, Mexico, to widen our service area.

In an ever changing industry, we have a steadfast history of buying and selling plastic throughout all market conditions. Our business is continuously growing due to our quality material and competitive pricing. At UPR, we believe in treating our customers fairly.
