We are your network for recycled plastics and related services

We ensure through 3 measures that the use of recycled plastics becomes standard practice
In each of the 3 areas we can contribute to more sustainability and resource conservation in the plastics industry together with our customers and partners.

Improve access
Simplify supply with suitable recycled plastics

Improve quality
Improving the recyclability of packaging and products

Improve control
Enabling access and management of material flows

Our mission is to make the organization of your plastics recycling activities and the use of recycled plastics as easy as possible.

Step 1
Establish structure
Recent developments and the voluntary commitments of the industry promote the demand for plastics recyclates. To ensure that these can be used in applications, digital solutions help to identify suitable recycled plastics by providing an efficient structure. We want to deliver a clear added value of information through our digital platform, where raw materials can be separated from each other and where the value chain can be connected.

In order to ensure that more recycled plastics find their way into everyday applications, a comprehensive understanding of the supply chains and qualities in plastics recycling is just as important as knowledge of the technical and qualitative requirements of potential users.

Step 2
Deliver added value
Digital networking in the value chain simplifies the marketing and purchasing of plastics recyclates. Complete information, a targeted search for raw materials for a specific application and the simplicity and safety of the process promote the use of recycled plastics - as founders of plastship we are convinced of this. We know the qualities, properties and values of plastics as an important resource and valuable material, also after the end of their actual use.

Since 2008, we have been able to accompany every step in the recovery and recycling of plastics thanks to our prior experience in the industry - from the collection of recyclables from end-users to the use of plastic regranulates in products.

Step 3
Build relationships
Reasonable added value in the recycling industry arises when partners tackle common goals. Sustainable material cycles and a higher proportion of recycled plastics in products can only be achieved through cooperation in the value chain. We make the digital and efficient marketing and procurement of high-quality recyclables, regranulates, regrinds and compounds possible and ensure an exchange of services and best practices to close the loop.

Our focus is on the active promotion of cooperations and the support of projects concerning the use of plastics recyclates and the recycling of plastics. In doing so, we become active as a service provider and consultant and are constantly expanding our range of activities for you.
