Helping to bring a brownfield site back to life by building a new recycling plant in Saint-Avold

In 2023, together with our partners Loop Industries and SK Geo Centric, we announced that a pioneering plastic recycling plant would be built on a brownfield site.

This new plant will be built on the Chemesis industrial platform in Saint-Avold, France, on a site heavily impacted by historic mining activity.

Instead of using a greenfield site, the facility will give a new lease of life to a brownfield site while developing an activity geared towards the ecological transition.

It will be able to produce up to 70,000 tonnes of virgin-quality recycled PET per year.
