Mann Waste says material remolding could take place here
An Island recycling firm is hoping to provide a new solution to disposed plastic bottles.
Jay Reid, who founded Mann Waste Recycling six months ago, wants to establish a facility on Island that enables a 'closed loop' process of the material.
Currently, plastic is shipped off Island and sent to centres across the UK.
Depending on the commodity price, it is then made into products from carpet to football shirts.
In partnership with the Northern, Southern and Western Civic Amenity centres, the firm is the sole contractor for Isle of Man creameries to recycle their new milk cartons.
Mr Reid's long term aim however, is to process and remold plastics on Island:
Amber weather warning issued as strong winds and coastal conditions expected overnight
Hospice funding criticised by UK charity chief amid Isle of Man service cuts
Sailings cancelled as storm brings gale-force winds
Manx Mountain Marathon route diverted over safety concerns amid forecast strong winds
Rushen MHKs to meet with Southern Group Practice over appointment concerns
