About the Product Family
Our M·CYCLOSE® compounds contain a proportion of raw materials that are reused. These recycled materials either come from products that have already completed a life cycle with consumers (PCR = Post Consumer Recyclate), or from waste products from industry, such as start-up materials from plastics processing (PIR = Post Industrial Recyclate). In both cases, the recyclate replaces virgin material made from traditional petroleum-based plastic and thus contributes to improving CO2 footprint of the materials, reduces waste streams and minimises the amount of energy required.
Our M·CYCLOSE® materials contain varying proportions of 'post-consumer' or 'post-industrial' recyclates. These recyclates are used in our compounds either as a base material or as a filler. We indicate the origin and the proportion of recyclate.

rPE produced from beverage cartons
Beverage cartons are difficult to recycle due to their complex composite materials. Saperatec GmbH has developed a water-based separation technology with which the components can be efficiently separated and high-quality raw materials recovered. This recycled PE, based on post-consumer recyclate, contributes to the circular economy and can be used in new products both pure and as an ingredient in formulations.

Recycled filler made from household waste
Large quantities of unsorted household waste accumulate every day – from banana peels to old pizza boxes. What appears useless at first glance is converted into 80,000 tonnes of valuable raw materials for plastics processing by our partner UBQ using innovative technology at its large-scale plant in the Netherlands.
