Resilux to double capacity with Erema technology

Resilux, a leading PET bottle and preform producer, has embarked on a major new technology investment that will double its bottle-to-bottle PET recycling capacity. By using the latest equipment from Erema, Resilux is taking its step forward in its drive to create a truly circular economy in PET.

The new VACUNITE® bottle-to-bottle system enables Resilux to significantly raise its production of food grade recycled PET. The new investment has been made in response to increased customer demand and the expectation that production will only increase in the future.

Marcel van de Sande, Resilux Group Chief Operating Officer, said that the new technology puts Resilux in the perfect positon to ride the next green wave” by using the “Power of PET”. The equipment is to be installed at the company’s Bilten location in Switzerland where the Resilux Group Recycling competence centre is based.

Belgium-based Resilux produces PET bottles and preforms in Europe and the USA as well as operating Europe’s modern PET recycling plant in Switzerland under the name Poly Recycling AG.
