Why LFGTE Certified Plastics Are Essential

LFGTE Certified plastics are essential for creating a cleaner, energy-efficient future. By leveraging existing landfill infrastructure, these plastics reduce greenhouse gas emissions, turn waste into renewable energy, and provide end-of-life value. They play a critical role in maximizing energy recovery while minimizing environmental impact, contributing to a sustainable waste-to-energy cycle.

Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions

By utilizing existing landfill infrastructure, LFGTE plastics minimize emissions from waste decomposition while reducing the need for additional waste systems.

Turn Waste into Energy

LFGTE Certified plastics are engineered specifically for landfill systems that capture and convert waste into renewable energy, reducing environmental impact while sustainably powering homes, businesses, and entire communities.

Provide End-of-Life Value

LFGTE Certified plastics go beyond disposal, turning landfill waste into a valuable energy source. By integrating with landfill gas-to-energy systems, they help generate sustainable power, reduce fossil fuel reliance, and support a circular economy.

Leverage Existing Infrastructure

LFGTE Certified plastics integrate seamlessly into existing landfill systems, avoiding the emissions, materials, and energy demands of new infrastructure while maximizing efficiency in sustainable waste management.

Support a Sustainable Waste-to-Energy Cycle

LFGTE Certified plastics are designed to maximize energy recovery while minimizing waste. Since plastic production requires energy, our certification ensures that energy isn’t lost, but recaptured.

Disclaimer:

LFGTE Certification verifies product compatibility with landfill gas-to-energy systems based on submitted laboratory data and testing aligned with ASTM D5526, ASTM D5511, or ISO 15985 standards. Certification confirms methane generation potential under anaerobic landfill conditions but does not imply or guarantee universal degradation across all landfill environments.
