ReSolved Technologies

ReSolved Technologies is a startup company located on the Brightlands Chemelot Campus in Geleen, The Netherlands. It was founded in December 2020 in order to further improve and implement its solvent-based technology for the recycling of engineering plastics and (soft) PVC.

We are dedicated to increase the circularity of engineering plastics by addressing complex waste streams for which no proper recycling solutions exist today. We achieve this by extracting valuable plastics from these difficult-to-recycle waste streams and convert them to recycled material of near-virgin quality that is suited for closed-loop recycling in high-end markets. We develop next level recycling technologies to achieve this challenging goal.

The average recycled content of plastic products manufactured in Europe will reach 40% by 2040.

We analyzed the waste markets, sustainability trends and available recycling technologies for plastic waste. Our study shows that the solvent-based technology has a great and as yet underestimated potential to play an important role in the future technology mix to recycle plastics, especially engineering plastics and (soft) PVC. It appears that the time for this technology has come.

Therefore, we recently acquired an advanced, 2nd generation solvent-based technology. Subsequently, we improved this process and made it suitable to treat complex post-consumer waste streams containing plastics with legacy additives, such as E-waste and car scrap.

We are now developing our second, improved pilot plant in The Netherlands. The plant is expected to be operational in early 2023.
