MULTI-LAYER PLASTIC RECYCLING An important step towards resource sustainability.
About us
Plastigram Industries a.s. has developed a technology for processing reject from used beverage cartons (for example Tetra Pak, Elopak, SIG Combibloc) after paper recycling.
Used beverage cartons are recycled in paper mills, which only recover the paper component. The remaining polyethylene and aluminum, often referred to as “polyal”, are usually incinerated or landfilled. Our innovative process enables the recovery of plastics as well as aluminum.
Beverage cartons are made of multi-layer composite consisting of paper, polyethylene and aluminium.
Paper is recycled at paper mills and remaining PE and Al composite is often incinerated.
Our technology allows recycling of PE and Al composite with the main final product being LDPE regranulate.
Our technology represents an important step towards resource sustainability. It significantly lowers the volume of landfilled and incinerated waste, reduces energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, and saves raw materials. In addition, it allows paper mills recycling UBC to reduce the cost associated with waste disposal.
Less waste for landfilling and incineration
Less energy consumed
Less raw materials consumed
Less greenhouse gases
Feed in material
We offer to our partners a price-attractive and environment-friendly disposal of the remains of used beverage cartons after paper recycling.
We offer to our partners post-consumer recycled plastics (LDPE, aluLDPE and mixed polyolefinsregranulates) and aluminum powder from used beverage cartons.
We are looking for professionals that will contribute to development and operations of a unique technology for recycling of multi-layer flexible plastics packaging. We offer challenging jobs with excellent career development opportunity and competitive compensation. Please contact us at hr@plastigram.eu for more information.
EU co-financing
Equipment for the recycling line in Sokolov has been co-financed by the European Union.
The European Union has also co-financed a project aimed at minimizing water consumption in the material recovery of the intermediate product from the recycling of used beverage containers.

Plastigram Industries has applied for the Czech patent for technology for recycling recycling the remains of used beverage cartons (e.g., Tetra Pak, Elopak, Sig Combibloc) after paper recycling.
Plastigram Industries has started operations of a pilot plant in Čestlice. The pilot plant should verify a process of recycling multi-layer packaging materials developed by the Institute of Chemical Process Fundamentals of the Czech Academy of Sciences, v.v.i.
Plastigram Industries a.s. signed a license agreement with the Institute of Chemical Process Fundamentals of the Czech Academy of Sciences, v.v.i. The agreement gives Plastigram Industries an exclusive right to use a patented solvent-based technology for recycling of composite packaging materials.
