There is a big interest among manufacturing companies to use more of recycled materials. As they look for viable solutions to replace their use of the virgin raw material. But the manufacturers also need the circular material to be of a stable and high quality. This could be plastic, metals, paper, or other material. This need for a certain degree of quality is a non-negotiable demand for the companies to start producing in a circular business model.

Innovative processes yield high quality

The Stena Nordic Recycling Center recycling facility has many advanced processes for producing new raw materials. All with a quality that can compete with virgin raw material. Among other things, Stena Recycling recycles large amounts of quality plastic from electronic waste. This has, for example, been used in our collaboration with Electrolux. In the collaboration where we developed a prototype vacuum cleaner, consisting of 100% recycled plastic from Stena Recycling. In the film, Patrik Ranagården explains which sustainable values are created. Values for all electronic waste customers and for all customers wanting to manufacture products from recycled materials.
