Why join Operation Clean Sweep?

Eliminating plastic pollution caused by plastic resin loss is critical to sustainability and environmental protection. Spilled plastic resin or pellets and plastic scrap can be carried into rivers, lakes, and oceans, causing harm to ecosystems and wildlife.

In fact, plastic pellets are estimated to be the second-largest direct source of microplastic pollution to the ocean. An estimated ten trillion plastic pellets are swept into waterways every year, where they are often ingested by animals, threatening their health and their lives.

We can help. When PSC Group operates a comprehensive Operation Clean Sweep program at your plant, you can be sure that the plastic resin in your facility is properly harvested. Even scrap quality increases improve your revenue from recycling and resale.
