Reactive Recycling for Polyethylene

Reactive Recycling offers an easy, fast, and cost-efficient way to upgrade your recycled polyethylene (rLDPE, rLLDPE, rHDPE) to improve performance.

Use existing extrusion equipment and simply add the Reactive Recycling products to the extruder together with the PE to be recycled.

For the recycling companies:

  • Tune the flow characteristics, MFR, of the recycled PE to fit application processing needs
  • Enhance processability of recycled PE
  • Increase the quality of the recycled PE
  • Non-hazardous and peroxide free

For the converter:

  • Enable use of higher amounts of recycled PE in the final application
  • Enable wider range of recyclable PE to be used – MFR optimization
  • Increased melt strength and more stable process for higher throughput
