Canadian Recycled Plastics Index

The Canadian Recycled Plastics Index tracks the changing market prices in the Canadian scrap / secondary plastics industry . The Index consists of a weighted basket of specific benchmark grades of recovered / secondary plastic. The benchmarks include specific grades of PET, HDPE, LDPE, PVC, Nylon and ABS. The Index includes snapshots of 5 viewpoints of market trends : the past 7 days, past 30 days, past 90 days, past 1 year and past 2 years.

The Composite Index is updated daily before noon EST and tracks 7 days per week. Transaction activity on the weekends is typically lighter; it is not uncommon to see no change reflected in the Index during this time period.
