Automotive Plastic Recycling — Circular Solutions at BAT Tower
Automotive Plastic Recycling: Circular Solutions at BAT Tower
Last Friday, experts in the automotive sector gathered at BAT accelerator Tower in Bizkaia to explore strategies for automotive plastic recycling and advancing circular economy practices. The event focused on the challenges and opportunities to make automotive plastics more sustainable, efficient, and reusable in high-performance applications.
One of the main topics at the BAT Tower event was the recovery and reuse of critical materials such as polycarbonate. Automotive plastic recycling plays a key role in reducing waste, lowering carbon emissions, and supporting sustainable mobility. Polykey contributes through its chemical recycling process for polycarbonate, transforming end-of-life plastics into high-quality materials for new applications.
Technological Innovations in Circularity
The event highlighted innovations such as advanced sorting, traceability systems, and smart recycling methods that allow manufacturers to close the loop on plastics. These solutions enhance resource efficiency while helping the automotive industry meet ambitious sustainability goals without compromising material performance.
Collaboration for a Circular Automotive Sector
Scaling automotive plastics recycling requires collaboration across the industry. Sharing best practices, research, and industrial experience enables the development of innovative approaches that integrate both design and end-of-life recycling strategies.
Polykey’s Commitment to Sustainable Materials
With advanced recycling methods, including Polykey’s chemical polycarbonate recycling, manufacturers can extend material life, reduce reliance on virgin resources, and strengthen supply chain resilience—supporting circular economy principles.
The BAT Tower event reinforced that innovation, collaboration, and smart material management are essential for a greener, circular automotive sector.
