CIRCTEC is a technology company focused on chemical recycling and sustainability solutions in the chemical, petrochemical, and oil industries.
Established in 2009 and headquartered in London, United Kingdom, the company specializes in pyrolysis technology to convert end-of-life tyres into valuable products, including sustainable drop-in fuels, recovered carbon black, circular naphtha, and other petrochemical feedstocks.
Its proprietary processes, such as the CIFR pyrolysis reactor system, emphasize energy efficiency, emissions control, and significant CO2 reductions by repurposing waste that would otherwise contribute to environmental harm through landfilling or incineration.
The CIRCTEC group maintains operations across five European countries, with manufacturing facilities including a flagship plant in Delfzijl, the Netherlands, alongside design, engineering, and research and development units, as well as feedstock collection capabilities through acquisitions like Granuband.
Privately held with investment from entities such as Novo Holdings and A.P. Moller Holding, CIRCTEC positions itself as an innovator and leader in scaling circular economy practices and decarbonization within its sectors.
Also known as Yanchep Holdings Limited.

Royal opening marks start of a 50,000 t/yr tyre pyrolysis plant producing marine fuel, circular naphtha, recovered carbon black and tyre pyrolysis oil; modular expansion to 200,000 t/yr planned.
Acquisition connects Amsterdam granulate plant to Delfzijl chemical recycling, creating a vertical chain from tyre collection to recycled chemicals, recovered carbon black and renewable fuels.
The €150M funding will build Europe's largest tyre pyrolysis recycling facility in Delfzijl, converting waste tyres into sustainable fuels and chemicals, reducing emissions and supporting circular economy.
The new factory will convert 200,000 tons of used tires into green chemicals, reducing CO2 emissions by 5% of the Dutch chemical sector and creating over 120 jobs. Expansion is planned for 2027-2028.
€150m financing (incl. €22.5m Dutch grants) will fund Europe’s largest end‑of‑life tyre pyrolysis facility in Delfzijl, with full offtake deals in place and significant emissions benefits.
Eight-year take-or-pay purchase for renewable drop-in marine fuel and circular naphtha; €12.5M debt for first-phase €100M capex; plant to process 200,000 t/yr of waste tyres, phase one in 2025.
