The circularity team aims to provide new additives and materials to prevent downcycling and thus strives to enable a high-quality mechanical recycling.

However, many other waste streams, like residues of mechanical sorting are too heterogeneous for a mechanical recycling approach. Therefore, new ways of chemical recycling are needed to guarantee a circular economy. This method utilizes the possibility to break the polymer’s chemical bonds to transform the waste into lower molecular weight streams or ideally its monomers. Subsequently, these can be used as “virgin” feedstocks for corresponding chemical processes to create new materials.

At Creavis, we develop new solutions in chemical recycling processes for the recycling of various polymers.
