RECYCLABLE WASTE
Terracle processes mixed, colored, and contaminated plastics once considered unrecyclable, along with PET-based apparel, blended textiles, films, and other polyester waste, by feeding them into the depolymerization process without complex pretreatment.

What is Depolymerization?
Chemical recycling requires different approaches depending on the type and properties of the plastic.
Terracle operates depolymerization technologies for plastics produced through condensation polymerization, including PET, nylon, and polyurethane.
This is the stage in which post-use PET remains in its polymer structure.
It is the starting structure before depolymerization, with long-chain molecular bonds.
PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY
Terracle has researched and developed a range of hydrolysis-based depolymerization technologies. Its sixth-generation technology, Terra-X™, uses the visible-light catalyst Black TiO₂-Xto induce radical reactions under low-temperature, atmospheric-pressure conditions and improve decomposition efficiency.

PRODUCT
We convert waste into high-purity recycled feedstocks suitable for PET production.
Cr-TPA
Chemical recycled Terephthalic acid
Cr-TPA is a drop-in recycled feedstock that can be introduced directly into existing facilities and processes without equipment modifications or additional additives. It can be used across PET applications including bottles, fibers, and films, with reliable ton-scale supply.

Cr-MEG
Chemical recycled Ethylene glycol
Cr-MEG is a drop-in recycled feedstock that can be introduced directly into existing facilities and processes without equipment modifications or additional additives. It can be used across a wide range of PET production processes, including bottles, fibers, and films, with reliable ton-scale supply.

PRODUCT APPLICATIONS
Terracle's recycled monomers can be applied to a wide range of polyester products, including bottles and packaging, fibers and apparel, films, and industrial materials. They enable a closed loop in which waste is returned to raw materials and remade into products instead of being landfilled or incinerated.
Terracle turns sustainability from a promise into a practical industrial strategy.

VALUE CHAIN IMPACT
By connecting waste generators, recycling partners, chemical material companies, and end users, Terracle builds a closed-loop system that returns waste to products. Select a tab below to explore each participant's role.
CR-TPA
Terephthalic acid Purity 99%
Recycled TPA is in the same condition as the new material. It can be used immediately without any facility expansion or additives. It is a drop-in chemical product.
CR-EG
Ethylene Glycol Purity 99%
We guarantee purity and can supply by the ton. Samples are also available for purchase.
