Engineering for a circular future
We specialize in polymer design for recyclability — helping companies make smarter material and design decisions from the very first concepts. Our focus is to obtain sufficient performance while also prioritizing choices which determine whether a product can be recycled, reused, or recovered at end of life.
The requirements - for example the PPWR (Packaging Waste Regulation) means that recycling of polymers become a mandatory part of product development.
With deep expertise in polymers and technical thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), we work at the intersection of design and material science to solve a difficult challenges — combining performance with recyclability. We bring a solution oriented engineering perspective to: material selection, part geometry, assembly methods, and disassembly logic that make recycling feasible in practice, not just in theory.
Our approach helps clients with for example:
Select TPE grades and material combinations suited to both performance requirements and end-of-life recovery
This may be for a current design or for new development
Design components and assemblies for easier separation, sorting, and recycling
Reduce material complexity and incompatible material combinations that hinder recyclability
Bridge the gap between design intent and recycling feasibility early in development
Meet evolving sustainability and circular-economy requirements without compromising product performance
We work closely with engineering and product teams to integrate recyclability into the design process itself — not as an afterthought, but as a core design parameter alongside strength, durability, and cost etc.
Furthermore TPU has worked with polymer recycling technology and have specific knowledge within this field.
Whether you're developing a new product or re-evaluating existing components, we can assists making design and material decisions that support both functional performance and a genuinely circular lifecycle.
Let's design for what comes next.
