Frequently asked questions

Up to about 70% for most of our crates, and we will tell you the figure for the specific product rather than quote a company-wide number.

The limit is set by the part, not by the material. A shallow bread crate tolerates far more regrind than a racked pallet, because the pallet is carrying a bending load and the crate is not.

The virgin polypropylene versions are. The recycled-content versions are not offered for direct food contact.

Post-industrial regrind is traceable and single-polymer, but it is not certified for food contact, so anything touching unpackaged food is moulded in virgin material.

Yes, against a supplied colour reference, with a minimum order per colour because the machine has to be purged between changes.

A moulded-in logo is worth adding at the same time — it is the difference between a returnable asset and a crate that quietly leaves your circuit.

One piece for stock crates and racks, ten pieces for pallets, and 500 kg for regrind material.

Custom colours and bespoke tooling carry their own minimums, which we quote with the item.

Stock items ship within a few working days. Coloured or custom runs are scheduled against a firm date at the point of order, usually two to four weeks.

Because we mould in Abu Dhabi, a repeat order does not carry a shipping lead time on top of the production one.

Across the UAE as standard, and to the wider GCC on scheduled routes.

For customers on a repeating cycle we can hold call-off stock so deliveries land when the season needs them.

Because the price depends on volume, colour, material grade and delivery point, and a single number on a page would be wrong for almost everyone reading it.

Add what you need to a quote request and we reply by email with a written quotation, normally within one working day.

It comes back to us. We reprocess it through our own regrind line and credit the recovered material against your next order.

That take-back is what makes the recycled-content claim on the next crate verifiable rather than aspirational.

Post-industrial sources: our own production offcuts and rejected mouldings, plus material recovered from customers under the take-back arrangement.

It is single-polymer and traceable to a batch, which is why it can be blended into structural parts at all. Mixed post-consumer waste cannot.

Solid Green is the sustainable plastics manufacturing arm of Modern Plastic Company, based in Abu Dhabi.

We make reusable transport packaging — pallets, crates and bottle racks — and run the regrind operation that keeps the material in circulation.
