Viridor is a UK-based recycling and resource recovery company focused on closing the loop for plastics and other materials. It operates materials recycling facilities and energy-from-waste plants, alongside a major multi‑polymer reprocessing hub at Avonmouth that converts more than a billion plastic bottles each year into recycled polymers for new applications in packaging and industrial products.
The company supplies recovered polymer feedstock to the chemicals and plastics value chain and partners with manufacturers to increase post‑consumer recycled content in high‑specification products. Through its acquisition of Quantafuel, Viridor is expanding into advanced (chemical) recycling, using plastics‑to‑liquids technology to turn hard‑to‑recycle waste plastics into feedstocks suitable for the petrochemical sector. Viridor’s activities support the development of a more circular plastics economy by scaling mechanical and chemical recycling solutions and integrating them with energy recovery for non‑recyclable residues.
