- The plant is part of a €100 million global R&D program.
- It transforms plastic waste into new polymers, reducing landfill and CO2.
- The facility supports a circular economy by replacing oil and gas in production.
- Recycl-IN polymer range includes up to 50% post-consumer recycled plastic.
Overview
INEOS has inaugurated a new advanced polymer pilot plant in Rosignano, Italy. The facility is designed to transform plastic waste into valuable polymers, diverting it from landfill or incineration.
Sustainability Goals
The plant supports a circular and sustainable approach to polymer production, aiming to replace oil and gas as raw materials. This initiative is part of INEOS's global €100 million research and development program.
Technological Advancements
The facility will develop advanced products, including lightweight car parts, using plastic waste. This aligns with the circular economy principles by reintroducing waste into the production cycle.
Recycl-IN Polymer Range
INEOS has also introduced the Recycl-IN polymer range, which contains up to 50% post-consumer recycled plastic, compounded with new highly engineered virgin polymers.
