Composite Recycling

♻️ From Trash to Treasure: The Future of Recycled Composites ♻️ At JEC World 2025, Composite Recycling's CEO Guillaume Perben joined a powerhouse panel to tackle a number of key questions, including: ➡️ What are the challenges of recycling composite waste at an industrial scale? In this short excerpt, Guillaume - along with Anurag Bansal of ACCIONA - discuss the realities of scaling composite recycling—covering key hurdles like waste separation, cost, and customer expectations. 🚀 Watch the clip below, and check out the full panel discussion on JEC TV here: https://lnkd.in/et9kVNiT A huge thank you to Benjamin Debusschère for the invitation to join the panel, to Malcolm Forsyth (Composites UK - Trade Association) for moderating, and to fellow panelists Julien PASCAL (Fairmat), Yvan Le Bozec (Decathlon ), and Kim Sjödahl (Exel Composites) for the insightful and collaborative exchange! 🔍 What do you see as the biggest challenge we need to overcome to facilitate industrial-scale composite recycling?

🚤 Circular manufacturing is no longer a concept—it's now reality! We've gotten lots questions about the circular boatbuilding alliance we announced a couple weeks back at JEC. Here's a simple graphic to explain this powerful collaboration, which makes true circularity possible by combining expertise across the entire value chain: ⚓ Groupe Beneteau – builds boats with recyclable materials like Arkema’s Elium® resin 🌍 Veolia – collects production waste for recycling 🔥 Composite Recycling – applies next-gen thermolysis tech to recover high-value fibers and oil 🧪 Arkema – transforms the reclaimed oil into new Elium® resin 🟢 Owens Corning – produces new glass fibers 🧵 CHOMARAT Group – crafts new glass reinforcements from these recycled fibers. 👉 Our technology enables this circularity by unlocking cost-effective, energy-efficient and scalable recycling for composite waste. Together with our alliance partners, we’re giving composite materials a second life—and reducing CO2 emissions by up to 70% compared to traditional methods. And it's about more than just the marine industry—it’s a blueprint for circularity in automotive, wind energy, aerospace, and beyond. Stay tuned for future announcements! #NetZero #CloseTheLoop #CircularEconomy #SustainableBoatbuilding #MarineInnovation
