A patented, fully automated decolorization andprocessing technology for everyday plastic waste that delivers nearly virgin plastic recyclate and colored masterbatches, closing the loop. This toxic chemical-free, low-temperature, CO2-neutral washing and decoloring process converts low-cost plastic waste into odor-free, directly usable recyclate using less water andrenewable energy (solar and hydrogen). The wastematerial is ground/shredded into flakes. Next, theseflakes go through hot washing, pre-decoloring, disinfection, and extrusion steps. The clear film then undergoes final decoloring and calibration. The resulting virgin-quality material can be processed using standard machines as it is or as a colored masterbatch using color infusion technology to make new products and molded parts. The color masterbatch ensures that aplastic product is uniformly colored.

It is also possible to make the material fully transparent or white; hence, itcan be used even for sensitive applications such as foodpackaging and toys. It is compatible with different typesof thermoplastics, including PET and polyolefins (PP, PE,LDPE, HDPE). This high-yield process can be used inany plastic production application, such as injection molding, blow molding, and all extrusion systems. The company works with the entire value chain, including brand owners, producers of single-use plastics, recyclers, and consumers, on various steps of there cycling process, from collection to production, providing this certified waste management technology as a service. It is authorized to trade CO2 emissions based on CO2 reduction certificates and has built a profit-sharing business model based on performance-based contracts to enable on-demand, in-house production. The process demonstrates reversible and resistance, flame retardancy, and hardness. Applications are for household products, children’s toys, consumer goods and packaging, and rigid and flexible products for cosmetics, automotive, fashion, industrial, and medical sectors.
