The Challenge: Beyond Mechanical Recycling

Mechanical recycling faces clear technical limits. It can only process specific types of plastic, and each reprocessing cycle gradually reduces material quality. As a result, a large share of plastic waste — including multilayer films, composites, and mixed polymers — remains outside traditional recycling systems. Consequently, valuable resources continue to be lost.

In Latin America, the challenge is even greater. Regional recycling rates remain below 12%, while global plastic production keeps rising. Without innovative solutions, companies will find it difficult to meet sustainability targets or achieve a fully closed-loop model. Therefore, the shift toward advanced recycling technologies is not optional; it is essential for long-term competitiveness and environmental compliance.

The ConectNext Solution: Pioneering a True Circular Economy

ConectNext connects Latin American manufacturers with global leaders in chemical and advanced recycling. Through our platform, companies gain access to pyrolysis systems that convert plastic waste into valuable oils and fuels, as well as depolymerization technologies that break plastics back into their original monomers. These processes allow the production of virgin-quality materials without relying on fossil feedstocks.

By adopting these solutions, businesses can process previously unrecyclable waste, generate new revenue streams, and significantly reduce landfill volumes. Moreover, they strengthen compliance with ESG goals and demonstrate tangible commitment to circularity.
