Plastic Energy has announced the final investment decision and start of construction for its advanced recycling plant in northern France.

Researchers have identified polymer additives that increase the storage stability of asphalt rubber.

A composite material’s key components are fibers and a resin. The fibers, typically made of glass or carbon, provide strength and stiffness, but if used alone fibers cannot be put in a shape or form where these properties can be used. Impregnating the fibers with resin followed by curing the resin allows us to engineer their strength, stiffness and light weight for a variety of applications, while adding even more benefits to the composite.

Plastic Energy has completed a significant capital raise of €145m from three separate investors: LetterOne, Axens and M&G. Morgan Stanley acted as financial advisor and placement agent to Plastic Energy on the capital raise.
