Viridor is a UK-based recycling and resource recovery company that processes post-consumer and commercial waste into valuable materials and energy. Its operations span materials recycling facilities, polymer reprocessing, and energy-from-waste plants, supporting diversion from landfill and the supply of secondary raw materials.
For the chemicals and plastics sectors, Viridor produces recycled polymers (such as PE, PP and PET) from post-consumer streams and develops routes to return difficult-to-recycle plastics to hydrocarbon feedstocks for new polymer production. By supplying consistent, specification-grade recycled materials, the company enables circular packaging and other applications, linking waste management with downstream chemical manufacturing.
The acquisition aims to drive innovation in plastics recycling, achieving full circularity by 2025. Quantafuel's technology converts waste plastics into raw materials for new plastics production.
The partnership produces polymers with up to 50% recycled content, supporting circular economy goals and meeting demand for sustainable materials without compromising quality.
Recycl-IN polymers combine up to 50% recycled plastic with virgin polymers, maintaining performance for non-food applications. Available Q4 2019, with range expansion in 2020.
