Our solutions for the recycling sector

Improvement of the recycling process and/or the material obtained

  • Selective sorting of complex materials: mixed waste, mixed plastics, very dirty plastics, thermoset plastics, tyres, etc.
  • Reduction and reuse of manufacturing scrap and rejects.
  • Optimization of recycling processes and the properties of recycled plastic.
  • Sustainability of plastic processes and products: recyclability, carbon footprint, ecodesign, ecoindicators, life cycle analysis.
  • Improving the properties of recycled plastic through additivation and compounding.
  • Search for new applications for recycled plastics (automotive, construction industries, etc.).

Elimination of odours and contaminants

  • Decontamination of recycled plastics to remove hazardous substances and odours through additivation and supercritical CO2.

Use of recycled plastic in food contact applications

  • Compliance with legislation on recycling products used for food contact, both in the authorisation process and in the development of products based on the use of functional barriers.
  • Training workshops on the use of recycled plastic in food contact applications.

Compliance with regulations and legislation

  • Control and characterization of recycled raw materials (fluidity index, density, impurities…).
  • Audit on the use of recycled material.
  • Advice on compliance with product legislation on the use of recycled material.
  • Environmental impact assessment (Carbon footprint, LCA).
  • Ecolabelling of recycled products (e.g. Blue Angel, Distintiu de Garantia Qualitat Ambiental).
