Plastic Energy is a chemical recycling company. We convert mixed post-consumer end-of-life plastic waste into feedstock for making new products by using our patented recycling technology.
Our experts have been developing this technology for over a decade, and we have two industrial plants operating in Spain.
The technology focuses on recycling plastics which cannot be easily mechanically recycled. This replaces fossil oils in the production of plastics.
During our process, we recover fillers present in waste plastic to create a mixed mineral and carbonaceous product, TACFILLER. It provides reinforcing properties in rubber formulations and can substitute a portion of carbon black in rubber compounds.
TACFILLER offers cost and LCA improvements over existing carbon-black containing formulations, creating an opportunity to replace virgin mineral fillers and carbon black with a 100% post-consumer recycled material. This offers increased recycled content at a competitive carbon footprint.
Alongside environmental benefits, it also offers performance and price advantages. TACFILLER has demonstrated a consistent lightweighting benefit over mineral fillers and carbon black, offering a lightweighting opportunity for all rubber products.
With our patented technology, TACFILLER offers a unique opportunity to increase the recycled content of your raw materials, furthering both your own and your customers’ sustainability goals.
