Loop Industries' breakthrough technology allows for all types of waste PET plastic and polyester fiber to be upcycled into high purity PET plastic suitable for use in food-grade packaging, like the kind used in water bottles. This includes the PET plastic found in carpets and opaque bottles, which ends up in landfills today. Our transformative technology is disrupting the PET plastic and polyester fiber manufacturing, waste management and consumer goods packaging industries for the better.
In the accompanying animation, a PET molecule is broken down through a chemical depolymerization process into its base monomers. These are separated from one another, purified and extracted to produce pure MEG and DMT monomers.
