Company Info
- Company Description
- Halocycle was established because of a shared passion for finding a solution to the plastics problem. We are a dedicated team who have spent a combined 40 years searching for answers to environmental and industrial issues. We are focused on deploying microwave processing in an innovative way as a means of recycling plastic, and particularly chlorine containing plastic (PVC).We are deploying established microwave processing technology to circumvent the problems associated with chemical recycling. The use of microwaves in industrial processing uses a different type of heating, whereby the target material is heated from the inside.This allows: The production of higher value end products with a broader scope for re-use in the formulation of new plastics;A reduced footprint and capital cost, enabling the use of smaller or mobile processing facilities;The potential to recycle chlorine containing packaging, such as PVC.
