PureCycle finalized its PureFive™ product portfolio, offering solutions for food-grade flexible film, thermoforming, injection molding, and textile applications. The company is progressing with sales pipelines involving top converters and brand owners, including Fortune 100 companies.

Collaboration with Procter & Gamble continues, with shipments planned for detergent bottle caps in the fourth quarter.

The final engineering of PureCycle's first Gen-2 purification design is expected by the first half of 2026, with annual capacity projected between 300 million and 500 million pounds. Financially, PureCycle's Q3 2025 revenue reached approximately $2.4 million.
