Our advanced recycling process
From waste to new life
The Selenis process recovers monomers through advanced recycling. Glycolysis is used to break-up PET waste and reduce it to its polymer building blocks — called monomers. Next, they are reintroduced to the value chain as recycled polyester raw materials.
Selenis’ advanced recycling process

Disposed PET
What is unique about Selenis breaking-through technology is that we combine the recycled PET with virgin raw material at specific dosages, according to production throughput and desired percentage of recycled content, resulting in the production of new polyesters with high levels of PCR.
Selenis current PCR production is initially supplied by Renascis, our recycling company. During a first stage, Renascis mechanically recycles PET waste flakes, advancing then into a glycolysis process. Glycolysis is used to break-up PET waste and reduce it to its monomer building blocks. During the final stage, after esterification and the polymerisation process our Eco resins are obtained, incorporating chemical recycled content.
