Global Polymers Announces MESA Membership
DVD Recycling Leader To Help Advance Industry Sustainability Agenda
Global Polymers, the home entertainment industry’s leading, certified destruction, closed-loop recycling, and sustainability specialist, has announced its membership in the Media and Entertainment Services Alliance (MESA). Last year the company securely destroyed and recycled over 6 million lbs. of material for the home entertainment industry, resulting in a savings of over 22,000 cubic yards of landfill space, 35,000 barrels of oil, and 2,300 tons of greenhouse gas emissions.
As a member of MESA, Global Polymers will participate in all programs related to establishing best practices for secure, sustainable recycling programs for the home video, video game and music industries. With over 15 years of experience in plastics, Global Polymers has the depth of market knowledge, technical expertise and logistic capability to not only securely destroy these sensitive materials, but to also find the most environmentally sustainable solutions for the material.
“Studios have unique requirements for a recycling service provider and Global Polymers has a longer track record and more established processes than any other service provider in this market segment. We have taken a leadership role in delivering closed-loop recycling solutions for home entertainment, automotive and consumer products and we are eager to introduce all content holders to the benefits of our systems and solutions for recycling their packaging and media materials,” said Global Polymers President Barry McRoberts.
MESA, a global alliance of service providers to the entertainment industry, assists its members in developing efficiencies in the creation, production and distribution of physical and digital media and entertainment. MESA utilizes partnerships with service providers, content holders, and other industry trade associations to generate dialogue and improvements in the industry’s workflow and supply chain processes.
Global Polymers will be participating in a closed-loop recycling/certified destruction summit in Los Angeles in early September to create an open industry dialogue about proven separation/sorting and closed-loop recycling methods and opportunities.
“We have spent two years fine tuning our recycling programs and processes, and are pleased to offer our expertise to the home entertainment industry,” comments McRoberts. “By partnering with MESA, we feel that we now have the right platform to share what we have learned and expand sustainability and recycling in the digital media Industry!”
