 saperatec is participating in the Agro2Circular project, funded by the EU Research and Innovation programme Horizon 2020 (Grant Agreement ID 101036838).

The Agro2Circular (A2C) project is focused on the implementation of the first territorial systemic solution for the upcycling of most relevant residues in the agrifood sector (fruits & vegetables and plastic multilayers) into high added value products, powered by a digital tool and constructed upon a systemic approach with high replicable and scalable potential. Through this solution, A2C will face important industrial, economic & social challenges in the agrifood sector.
A2C will develop the first recycling value chain for post-industrial multilayer films based on a synergistic approach combining innovative sorting, physical delamination, enzymatic depolymerisation, decontamination & mechanical recycling. saperatec contributes to this development with its huge expertise in the separation of aluminium from complex multilayers.

On 2th July 2021, saperatec CTO, Dr. Sebastian Kernbaum, was invited by The Royal Society to speak about disruptive technologies in the recycling sector. Mr. Kernbaum presented the saperatec technology with its recent material qualities as one approach to extend the state-of-the-art mechanical recycling to “advanced mechanical recycling”. These cutting-edge processes enable access to materials in composite systems with unchanged properties. The talk was finished with a classification of today´s plastic recycling technologies and saperatec´s next steps towards its first industrial plant.

Aluminium is one of the best performing barrier materials in polymer flexible packaging with many key advantages. It facilitates lightweight packaging alternatives over more resource-intense rigid packaging options and achieves superior product protection and shelf live, while simplifying supply chain requirements. A key challenge today is that even in advanced recycling systems today, only the aluminium content of this high-performance packaging material is recirculated. The plastics share – often more than 70% - is at best used for energy. Better recycling options that recover the plastics from this packaging waste are needed.

Recently the Global Aluminium Foil Roller Initiative (GLAFRI) organized a webinar regarding “Alufoil Sorting and Recycling” for representatives of the aluminium foil industry. At the webinar Saperatec presented its Advanced Mechanical Recycling solution for polymer-alufoil composite packaging waste. Based on the webinar an overview on modern technologies including the Saperatec Advanced Mechanical Recycling technology was published by International ALUMINIUM Journal.
