This document analyzes trends in Composite IBC (Intermediate Bulk Container) purchases from 2009 to 2012, reflecting on the complexities of PCCR (Post-consumer Resin) refillable compliance and the impact on exports and non-refillable totes. Factors such as cost, product hazard characteristics, recirculation requirements, and container refill market strategies are explored to understand the implications on stewardship and life expectancy of these containers. The study aims to provide insights for an internal audience on the considerations and market applications of Composite IBC usage.
