IntegriCo, based in Sarepta, Louisiana, has announced it is reducing plastic waste in the US. China once received 70% of plastic waste from around the world, but in January 2018, a ban was imposed that drastically decreased the amount of plastic the country received.

IntegriCo has diverted more than 80 million pounds of plastic away from landfills, and it has been turned into composite products, including IntegriTies™ railroad ties and construction matting through IntegriCo’s technology. The company’s low temperature process preserves the properties of plastic and reduces fumes, and its final products last longer than alternatives, producing less waste over time.
