| An interview with Mr. Rastegar Exir Polymer’s CEO
In the expanding world of sustainable plastics, Exir Polymer stands out as a leader in producing recycled plastic granules, including polystyrene (PS), ABS and polypropylene (PP) granules.
We sat down with Exir Polymer’s CEO, Engineer Rastegar, to learn about the entire plastic recycling process. Through this interview, we’ll explore each step of the process, the importance of recycled plastics, and how Exir Polymer handles diverse waste types to ensure quality granules.

The Importance of Plastic Recycling
Interviewer: “Mr. Rastegar, could you share why plastic recycling is so important to Exir Polymer’s mission and your approach to recycled plastic production?”
Engineer Rastegar: “Certainly. Recycling plastic isn’t just about reducing waste—it’s a way to create value from what would otherwise be discarded.
By transforming used plastics into high-quality granules, we reduce reliance on virgin plastics, support sustainable practices, and provide our clients with cost-effective, eco-friendly alternatives.
Our goal at Exir Polymer is to pioneer green solutions without compromising quality.”
Plastic Recycling Process in Exir Polymer
At Exir Polymer, we follow a thorough and multi-step recycling process to ensure every granule meets industry standards. Let’s break down each stage of the process:
1. Collection
Interviewer: “It all starts with collecting waste. What kinds of plastic waste do you gather?”
Engineer Rastegar: “We collect both pre-consumer and post-consumer waste. Pre-consumer waste includes off-cuts from manufacturing, while post-consumer waste refers to items discarded after use.”
You can find a deeper comparison of these types of waste here: What is the difference between pre-consumer and post-consumer waste?
2. Sorting
Interviewer: “Sorting is a vital step. How do you handle it?”
Engineer Rastegar: “Sorting allows us to separate plastics by type and color. We have a specialized team and sorting equipment to ensure that only compatible materials enter the recycling process.”
3. Shredding
Next, the sorted plastics are shredded into smaller, manageable pieces. Shredding ensures even heating and easier processing in later stages.
4. Washing
Interviewer: “How critical is the washing phase?”
Engineer Rastegar: “Washing is essential for removing contaminants such as labels, adhesives, and dirt. This is particularly important because even small impurities can affect the quality and properties of the final granules.”
5. Extrusion
In the extrusion stage, plastic particles are melted and filtered to remove any remaining impurities, resulting in a purified polymer stream.
In certain cases, we create plastic compounds by adding specific additives, allowing us to tailor the properties of the recycled polymer for specialized applications. For more on compounding, you can visit our plastic compounding page.
6. Granulation
Interviewer: “So, at the end of the process, we finally get the recycled granules?”
Engineer Rastegar: “Exactly! Granulation is the last stage, where melted plastic forms into small, uniform pellets or granules. These granules are the final recycled product and can be used by manufacturers to create new products.”
After Recycling: Recycled Plastic Granules
The granules produced are of high quality and versatile for different applications. Exir Polymer’s recycled PS, ABS and PP granules are often used in creating new household products, electronic enclosures, and more. For more details, you can explore our range of recycled plastic granules.

At Exir Polymer, we recycle a variety of plastics, especially those used in consumer goods and packaging. Common types include:
The Benefits of Plastic Recycling
Interviewer: “Finally, could you share the main benefits of plastic recycling for both your clients and the environment?”
Engineer Rastegar: “Plastic recycling benefits us all. It cuts down on energy and resource use, minimizes environmental impact, and meets the demand for sustainable, high-performance materials.
It’s also economically advantageous, as recycled granules often come at a lower cost than virgin materials. This efficiency is why our clients continue choosing Exir Polymer for their recycled plastic needs.”
Conclusion
Exir Polymer’s plastic recycling process showcases our commitment to quality, sustainability, and customer satisfaction. From collection to granulation, each step is carefully managed to produce premium recycled plastic granules that meet industry standards.
