Circular economy: A key driver of Materials
Circular economy is at the core of our Materials Business strategy and serves as the basis for our operations.
We pursue a production model that makes full use of resources and generates the least amount of waste. Thanks to that, we produce materials that, in addition to being 100% recyclable, can be used to provide the products needed by society such as healthcare materials, packaging, automotive components, furniture, among others.
These materials, which incorporate a certain percentage of recycled materials in their composition, can be used repeatedly giving them a second life and making them more efficient and sustainable.

Reciclex
Reciclex
With this project, we obtain new polymers that incorporate recycled material, guaranteeing top quality and functionality. With this new range of products, we expand our commitment to circular economy and our value chain, making more sustainable, innovative solutions.
Circular Polymers
Circular Polymers
We have been pioneers in the production of circular polymers using pyrolysis oil as an alternative raw material, which is derived from chemically recycled plastic waste that is not suitable for mechanical recycling. These circular polymers feature the same quality and functionality as virgin polymers and can be used in food packaging and healthcare products. Moreover, all our productive complexes are ISCC PLUS certified for their production.
Circular Plastic Alliance: Building alliances to become more sustainable
We joined the Circular Plastics Alliance (CPA), an initiative by the European Commission aimed at boosting the market for recycled plastics in Europe. This commitment further supports our strategy to promote a transition towards an economic model based on circular economy just like the "Circular Economy Pact" we signed in 2017 alongside the key economic and social players in Spain.
