Total: partnership to recycle plastics in France

(CercleFinance.com) - As part of the call for projects launched by Citeo, Total has announced a partnership with Citeo and Recycling Technologies, Nestlé and Mars, to develop an innovative industrial chemical recycling industry in France.


The consortium will study the technical and economic feasibility of recycling complex plastic waste, such as small, flexible or multi-layered packaging, which is currently considered non-recyclable and ends up in incineration or landfill.

"The project announced today to develop an industrial sector involving major players in the packaging value chain is an important step in our ambition to produce 30% recycled polymers by 2030," said Bernard Pinatel, President Refining & Chemicals at Total.
