Overview

8,000 tonnes of recycled compound a year

Thaloplast produces rPP, rPS and recycled compounds for industrial applications. Material properties are controlled through dedicated recycling and compounding processes, for consistent quality and full traceability.

  • A dedicated recycling workshop with 3 recycling lines. Buildings, warehouse and staff are fully separate from pharmaceutical packaging production.
  • Feedstock is single-polymer post-industrial plastic, batched and coded from the moment it is received.
  • Under the company-wide ISO 9001:2015 system. GRS certified, with a GRS Transaction Certificate for every lot.

White-Tag release

Every 1,000 kg pallet passes heavy metal and mechanical screening before it gets its release tag.

24-month traceability

Every bag and pallet carries a lot number and production date, linked to the stored records.

Segregated REACH lines

REACH orders run on purged machines, cleaned separately and clearly signed.
