Collection
Recover used PET bottles through suitable collection channels.
Our approach
A bottle-to-bottle system connects material recovery with the requirements of future packaging.
The circular pathway
The pathway below illustrates the system we are exploring, rather than an existing ClosedLoop operation.
Recover used PET bottles through suitable collection channels.
Separate and prepare material to meet processing requirements.
Explore processing and decontamination pathways suitable for food-grade applications.
Connect recycled PET with packaging manufacturers and brand owners.
Our development focus
We are exploring the conditions needed for a viable local recycling facility.
Understand available PET streams, contamination, consistency and the expectations of collection partners.
Evaluate recycling technology, quality assurance, site needs and applicable food-contact requirements.
Discuss potential recycled PET applications, buyer specifications and the commercial foundations of the project.
Food-grade ambition
The proposed facility would focus on food-grade PET bottle-to-bottle recycling.
Food-contact packaging requires careful attention to feedstock, processing, decontamination and quality assurance. These requirements are central to the facility pathway we are exploring.
Technical suitability and applicable approvals would need to be established as development progresses. Our development work is focused on understanding these requirements before moving towards implementation.
A circular future starts with a conversation
