Extrusion blow moulder and injection moulder Corplex (Kaysersberg / France; www.corplex.com) wants to drive forward the development of an in-house recycling division and pave the way for entering a plastics recycling economy with the takeover of PET recycler GeboPlast (Muhlbach sur Bruche / France; www.schroll.fr/en/plastics-processing).
The globally active plastic experts from Alsace took over GeboPlast on 1 January 2021. The acquisition is ideal, writes Corplex in a press release, because it fulfils two important requirements for the investor: The recycling company, founded in 1977, is also based in Alsace and has two branches there. In addition, GeboPlast, with its activities in shredding, compounding, pellet production and disinfection, brings exactly the expertise that was hoped for in the new Corplex recycling division.
The company name, GeboPlast, will no longer exist; the company’s activities will continue under the company name Corplex-Recycling. In Alsace, the company plans to recycle up to 15,000 t of PE, PP, PS and PC annually.
