Polyester renewal technology is one of our two types of Advanced Circular Recycling technologies. Polyester renewal allows us to divert a family of polyester waste plastic beyond clear water bottles—products such as colored bottles, carpet fibers, and textiles—from the landfill. This technology unzips materials back to their original monomers through one of two processes—glycolysis or methanolysis, depending on the type of material being used to supply the process—to create new materials made with recycled content. This process, also known as depolymerization, allows us to recycle polyester waste over and over again without degradation over time and can reduce the average greenhouse gas emissions by 20% - 30% when compared to processes using fossil fuels.
