Around 16,000 tons/year of materials are recovered in the MBT Plant, specifically in the mechanical pretreatment stage, to be reintroduced into the market as recycled products. 

The materials recovered are: glass, paper/cardboard, plastic (PET, HDPE, LDPE and mixed plastic), tetra bricks, iron materials and aluminium.

Material recovered	T/year
Paper/Cardboard	5.785
PET	483
HDPE	394
Mixed plastic	1.429
LDPE	2.715
Tetra bricks	642
Glass	665
Iron materials	3.589
Aluminium	372

Thanks to the recovery of these materials, a great deal of natural resources and energy which would otherwise be used to produce these materials can be saved.
