UPCYCLE Plastics Recycling

Imagine if we could potentially recycle up to 90 percent of global plastic waste. Honeywell’s UpCycle Process could help the world do just that – achieving true circularity.

RECLAIM. RECYCLE. REPEAT.

Envision a future free from plastic pollution. We have developed a new process technology and business models to help tackle the global challenge of plastic waste. With this advanced plastics recycling technology, we can contribute towards increasing by three times (3X) the amount of plastics that can be recycled. In addition, Honeywell's UpCycle displaces fossil feedstocks in new plastic production and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

Produce Virgin Quality Materials At Half The CO₂ Footprint.

Make new plastic out of old plastic waste. With Honeywell's UpCycle Process you can produce high quality recycled polymer feedstock. This needs less hydrotreating or pre-processing, resulting in higher blend limits and greater recycled plastic production, while displacing fossil feedstock and preventing conventional waste handling.

Policymakers and Non-Government Organizations

Reduce Waste. Resource the Future.

The world needs a better solution for recycling. Support changes to plastic waste management with Honeywell. By broadening the forms of plastic that can be recycled, Honeywell's UpCycle Process provides further incentive to improve collection and sorting of plastic waste. Take the first step towards a circular value chain.

Upstream Partners

Recycle Plastics the More Sustainable Way.

Join us and reimagine recycling. We are partnering with waste management companies to dramatically increase the amount of plastic that can be recycled. Let’s minimize plastic waste that would go to landfills or incineration and reduce the CO₂ footprint of handling mixed waste plastics. Take the path to true circularity.

Honeywell Introduces Revolutionary Plastics Recycling Technology To Drive A Circular Plastics Economy

Honeywell's UpCycle Process Technology was created within Honeywell's Sustainable Technology Solutions (STS) group, which is part of Honeywell UOP. This latest technology builds upon Honeywell's focus to deliver high impact, environmentally sustainable solutions for customers and society.
