At DePoly, we are revolutionizing plastic waste treatment, paving the way for a greener and cleaner Earth for the generations to come. Our cutting-edge recycling process converts plastics into high-quality raw materials without compromising their quality. Not only is it energy-efficient, but it also has the remarkable ability to handle even the most challenging streams of PET plastic and textiles, including mixed, dirty post-consumer and post-industrial waste that are traditionally considered unrecyclable. With our innovative green technology, we are reshaping the lifecycle of plastics, not just aiming for incremental change; we're driving a monumental shift towards a truly circular and sustainable plastic economy.
