Get to Know Our Plastic Oil Production Process

As of the early 2025 onwards, PlastEco Ltd. will start the production of plastic oil from recycled plastic. We employ a distributed recycling solution to minimize transporting waste avoiding harmful environmental effects. Our process significantly improves the recycling of plastic waste as we redirect waste plastics from burning into a newly reusable raw material.

Our equipment produces 1000 liters of clean plastic oil from 1000 kilograms of plastic waste, which is completely reusable as a raw material of plastics. Gas produced as a byproduct of the process is completely used as the energy source for the process.

Collection

Firstly, Salpakierto Ltd. receives the waste and sorts plastic materials from mixed waste.
