Efficient, scalable pathways for plastics chemical recycling
- Gearing towards food grade 

Licella joined forces with a group of high-profile companies like Nestlé and LyondellBasell, who have collaborated to produce Australia’s first soft plastic food wrapper made with food-grade recycled content. March 21, 2021, The Biofuels Digest

Licella is establishing a chemical recycling industry in Australia with its Cat HTR™ technology , turning waste into a resource and diverting it from landfill.

The company says that In Australia, there is the potential to build 20 to 30 commercial Cat-HTR plants.

Leading brandowner Nestle is committed to play a key role in driving demand for food grade recycled soft plastic packaging, and creating market conditions that will ensure all stakeholders throughout the value chain view soft plastics as a resource and not waste.

This collaboration with all  partners along the plastic value chain from MRFs to packaging companies demonstrates the shared vision of all  to collectively bring their individual expertise together from collecting, processing  waste soft plastic, turn it back into oil, and create the prototype Kit Kat wrapper.

In the broader Asia region, Plastics Energy collaborates with Malaysia’s petrochemical major Petronas to help drive their  business goals against sustainability development obligations.

As part of its circular economy roadmap, SCG announced its chemical recycling technology and will start up  Thailand’s first demonstration plant.

What are the key opportunities and challenges to commercialise plastics chemical recycling in the region ? How is chemical recycling defined and what are current regulatory developments ?
