Plastic Back, low temperature recycling of PVC and unrecyclable plastic waste
Co-Founder COO at Plastic Back Ltd

About
Plastic Back develops a low temperature chemical recycling process that converts PVC and other difficult to treat plastic waste streams back into valuable oils and chemicals. The process operates below 100°C, can treat 100% PVC as well as mixed and contaminated waste streams, and is designed to reduce emissions versus high temperature alternatives.
The company is advancing from pilot to semi commercial scale. Its current traction includes paid PoCs, two VC investors, more than 10 patents, a first granted patent, and a signed LOI to purchase at least 30% of Plastic Back’s credits. A US pilot project is planned with a USD 3M budget and a 2025 to 2026 operating target of 30 ton per annum. In Europe, Plastic Back is developing a German industrial offtake pilot in which Avery Dennison supplies PVC waste and Vestolit Orbia evaluates integration of the resulting brine and oil into industrial processes for new recycled PVC production.
Plastic Back is currently opening a €1M SAFE round to complete the industrial pilot and bridge to a €15M Series A for EU market expansion starting in 2026. We are interested in discussions with climate and circular economy investors, as well as strategic industrial partners in petrochemicals, PVC, advanced recycling and waste processing.
