What do you do with cigarette butts after they are collected?

Cigarette butts are treated by a process in which solid waste such as paper and remaining ash are removed. After, butts go through IMEKO®’s chemical process, eliminating the thousands of toxic compounds generated by cigar’s combustion. Then, this clean material is converted into Celion®, a pellet based on cellulose acetate, ready to manufacture new plastics products.
