Dentis Recycling Italy is a multinational family-run business established in 1987, specialized in PET (polyethyleneterephtalate) sorting and recycling from post-consumers bottles. Nowadays, the Group can account three different plants, respectively placed in Italy (Dentis Recycling Italy, S. Albano Stura-Cuneo), the headquarter of the Group, in Spain (Pet Comapania para su reciclado, Chiva – Valencia) and in France (Nord Pal Plast, Lesquin- Lille) with a total amount of 270 ktons of bottles processed each year. Thanks to the our high technological process, post-comsumer PET bottles can be mechanically recycled to be turned in our R-PET products, known as PETALO® , RPET hot washed flakes, which is among the top highest quality products on the R-PET market thanks to its low contaminant content and its homogenous crystallized structure and REPETER®, RPET in granules for food applications produced in several color streams.

Depoly's recycling technology uniquely deals with pre- / post-consumer and post-industrial PET and polyester streams, typically turned down by the conventional recycling system, such as those containing mixed plastics, mixed colors, dirty plastic waste streams, as well as fabrics and fibers, recycling them back into their original monomers (PTA and MEG) of the same quality as the fossil-fuel-based incumbents, meaning customers no longer have to choose between PET quality and sustainability. Operating under room temperature and standard pressure, the DePoly process doesn't require pre-washing, sorting, melting, or separation of other materials, unlike most of the technologies out there. Ultimately, it not only offers a circular solution for plastic waste but is also energy efficient and reduces the carbon footprint originating from PET plastic production.

Gr3n SA is a Swiss company established in 2013. The company developed an innovative process, based on a new application of microwave technology to provide an efficient chemical recycling process of PET and polyester textile allowing an industrial implementation of this recycling method. The robustness of the whole process allows to treat highly contaminated materials upcycling the PET recycling. The recycling process of gr3n produces the same monomers used for conventional synthesis of PET exploiting a full integration with the existing value chain of PET. The process is economically competitive with oil-based production of PET but creating a huge benefit for the environment. More details are here: gr3n-recycling.com
