Eastman experts showed how methanolysis breaks down hard-to-recycle polyester waste to the molecular level, creating new materials from plastic waste otherwise bound for landfill or incineration. The process also delivers approximately 20-30% fewer greenhouse gas emissions than traditional fossil-based plastic production.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cInnovation and collaboration across the public and private sectors are important to advancing practical, scalable solutions that strengthen domestic recycling infrastructure, reduce dependence on foreign sources of raw materials and support American manufacturing,\u201d said principal deputy assistant administrator for Land and Emergency Management Steven Cook. \u201cI appreciate the opportunity to visit Eastman\u2019s Kingsport facility and see its advanced recycling technology firsthand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nCook and McOmber also observed the site\u2019s state-of-the-art mixed plastics processing, sorting and control rooms, which support the facility\u2019s world-class operational standards. The visit included discussions with Eastman team members about the future of American manufacturing, the role of sustainable technologies and the importance of public-private collaboration in scaling innovative recycling solutions.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cEPA is committed to supporting innovative technologies that protect our environment while boosting the economy,\u201d said regional administrator Kevin McOmber. \u201cThe advanced recycling work happening in Tennessee demonstrates how cutting-edge American engineering can keep plastic waste out of landfills, increase demand for recycled products, and create high-quality manufacturing jobs right here in our region.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nEastman has played an important role in America\u2019s 250-year history. The company welcomed the opportunity to showcase its over 100-year-old Kingsport operations and discuss how continued investment in innovation, supported by strong policy, can help accelerate broader adoption of next-generation recycling solutions.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cEastman\u2019s Kingsport site is a powerful example of how innovation can help solve real-world materials challenges,\u201d said Steve Crawford, Eastman executive vice president and chief technology and sustainability officer. \u201cWe are proud to show EPA leadership how our technology is converting hard-to-recycle waste into valuable new material while supporting U.S. manufacturing, creating economic opportunity and advancing more sustainable solutions at scale.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>About Eastman<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nFounded in 1920, Eastman is a global specialty materials company that produces a broad range of products found in items people use every day.
