What do the numbers on the bottom of plastic containers mean ?
The Society of the Plastics Industry, Inc. (SPI) introduced a resin identification coding system in 1988. Most municipal recycling programs targeted packaging containers for recycling- the SPI coding system offered a means of identifying the resin content of bottles and containers commonly found in the residential waste stream. The resin code is not a recycle symbol. Recycling firms have varying standards for the plastics they accept.
