Covestro and Interseroh sign a memorandum of understanding for innovative recycling of waste plastics

[ Star Enterprise of Chemical Machinery and Equipment Network ] Covestro and Interseroh intend to cooperate in the field of innovative recycling of plastic waste
.
This includes resistant plastic products made from Covestro materials such as polyurethane and polycarbonate
.
Therefore, the two partners recently signed a memorandum of understanding
.

 Chemical machinery and equipment network star enterprise chemical machinery and equipment
Convert plastic waste into raw materials
 
To this end, Interseroh intends to purchase and prepare related materials from end-of-life products and distribute them to Covestro for reintegration into the raw material cycle; Covestro intends to use these scrapped raw materials as raw materials and utilize its recycling expertise , Convert plastic waste into high-quality raw materials to achieve a closed loop
.

 
"Our cooperation with Interseroh is an important milestone in the integration of the chemical and recycling industries, aiming to establish a new value cycle for the circular economy," said Dr.
Markus Steilemann, CEO of Covestro
.
"The success of this project depends to a large extent on the recycling knowledge of our partners and the innovative recycling technologies we are currently developing.
It also depends on the appropriate regulatory framework conditions, especially chemical recycling
.
"
 
"Technology development and innovation are important pillars of our work towards a waste-free future," said Dr.
Axel Schweitzer, CEO of ALBA Group
.
"Given the climate protection goals we want to achieve, we must also find sustainable solutions for the types of plastics that are difficult to recycle
.
We are very happy to be able to help shape the development here with Covestro
.
"
 
Innovative recycling technology
 
Plastic is an indispensable and future-oriented material
.
Therefore, used products are also a valuable resource
.
This is why Covestro works with partners to develop innovative recycling technologies and chemical processes to return plastics to the value cycle
.
The company is committed to recycling waste plastics and is a member of the corporate network "The Alliance to End Plastic Waste
.
"
 
However, to achieve an effective and resource-saving circular economy, more work needs to be done
.
For example, the disposal and recycling system must be improved or first established on a global scale
.
Here, Interseroh is a partner with many years of experience and extensive expertise
.
Both companies hope to reduce the footprint of CO2 production processes and products, thereby contributing to climate and environmental protection
.
At the same time, they hope to develop a new circular business model
