Contribute to a better world
a perfect start makes a brilliant ending

No product lasts forever. What happens to your clothes after they're worn off? Or your children's toys after they've been used until they fall apart? Imagine a world in which you contribute to the conservation of the environment, simply by returning your product.

Refresh Plastics Technology turns ideas into reality and plastic waste into reusable, almost-new plastics, for a 100% circular and sustainable world that benefits everybody.

  • Your plastic waste turned into valuable raw materials

The Crate

Not a regular blue household crate, but our own Refresh Plastics Technology product. Multifunctional in use and 100% sustainable. Simply return your product and be rewarded! But there's more...

Textiles

Each year, 90 million items of clothing end up in landfills. But Refresh Plastics Technology makes it possible to change this. Our textile is completely (de-)colourable and reversible, diminishing textile pollution and contributing to a circular and sustainable world.

Toys

Plastic pollution is a serious threat to the environment. Our technology allows us to reuse plastics, which doesn't only diminish plastic waste; it also cuts down the need to produce new plastic. It's a win-win situation for all of us!

A perfect start makes a brilliant ending

You don’t have to do anything different than you’re doing now on a daily base. You simply use your products until you no longer need or want them. The next and last step is that instead of throwing them away, you return the products to the shop where you bought them or you send them back to us. We’ll take care of the rest!

Grinding

Of course, you understand that your products need to be decreased in size. This step is essential to the whole process. That’s why we have special machines with reduction technology. These machines turn your plastic product into small, homogeneous flakes for optimal washing and decolouring.

Pre-decoloring

It goes without saying that your old products are contaminated. Examples of contamination are labels or prints. These need to be removed before washing and decolouring. All of our washing activities are free of chemicals. Moreover, washing occurs at low temperatures to reduce the impact on the environment.

Final decoloring

Colour is what makes a product appealing. But at the same time, colour in plastic is the biggest culprit in a recycling process. With our efficient and effective Refresh Plastics technology, we can completely decolourize plastics and restore them until they’re in new condition.

Extrusion

After our effective washing cycle, the plastics are processed to a thin film that is eventually rolled up. As shown in the video, Refresh Plastics Technology is added to the film during the manufacturing process, which serves as preparation for the next step.

Coloring technology

Refresh Plastics Technology ensures that your plastic product looks even better than you’re used to, because we can colour plastics better than ever before. As a result, colour is no longer a threat but a strength. Brilliant colours assure a perfect start with a brilliant ending.

Colour masterbatch

Technology should ensure a improvement in quality. That’s exactly what we do. We raise the quality of your product and make it 100% circular and decolourable again. Refresh Plastics makes it possible to reuse environmentally friendly, valuable raw materials, and the entire process can be repeated up to five times without altering the quality of the product.
