Our waste is valuable: how one company is creating a circular economy for plastics
Plastics need to become part of the circular economy to tackle climate change. Here's how one firm is contributing, by developing a PET biorecycling plant.
Carbios is developing biological and innovative technologies to revolutionize the end of life of plastics and textiles. Through its unique approach of combining enzymes and plastics, Carbios aims to address a major challenge of the times: plastic and textile pollution. Its enzymatic recycling technology deconstructs any type of PET plastic waste into its basic components, which can then be reused to produce new PET plastics of a quality equivalent to virgin ones.
