Composite Recycling SA

Glass fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) is becoming a worldwide pollution problem. In 2021, 4.5 million tonnes of GFRP waste was produced with 98% ending up in landfill. Meanwhile, 9 million tonnes of new GFRP was pro-duced. For example, GFRP fueled a boating boom, but now dumped and ageing craft are breaking up, releasing toxins and microplastics across the world and wind turbine blades can't be recycled so they are piling up in landfills. At Composite Recycling, we close the loop on GFRPs by recycling them into reusable glass fibres and pyrolysis oil, which can be sold and used to make new composites and plastics. Our proprietary mobile recy-cling units are energy neutral, using the reaction to self-power. This allows us to sell the reclaimed materials at market value for a profit.
