Arkema will participate in Plastics Recycling Show Europe (PRSE) 2025 and showcase Polyamide 11 and 12 resins, PEBA elastomers, PVDF fluoropolymers and Virtucycle® recycling program.
Plastics Recycling Show Europe (PRSE) 2025
The Plastics Recycling Show Europe is an exhibition, conference and awards dedicated to plastics recycling in mainland Europe. The event covers the supply chain from design for raw materials, design for recycling, collection, sorting and recycling of industrial, commercial, agricultural, and post-consumer.
Meet Arkema's material experts and find out more about the specialty polymer recycling activity.

The Virtucycle® Recycling Program
Arkema developed the Virtucycle® recycling program, a virtuous initiative for specialty polymer recycling, offered to high-performance polymer customers and downstream users. The program enables our partners to adopt more sustainable practices and reduce their carbon footprint by providing polymers for reprocessing or sourcing new materials with minimum recycled content and no compromise in performance.
The Virtucycle® program offers 3 areas of support to customers and downstream users of Arkema's high-performance polymers: eco-design expertise, recyclability guarantee, and recycling of the high-performance polymer.
Arkema collaborates with its customers who want to recycle or buy partially or fully recycled grades, focusing on Polyamide 11 and 12 resins, PEBA elastomers and PVDF fluoropolymers.
Climate Change Impact of Certified Recycled High Performance Polymers
With over 30 years of experience at Agiplast recycling center, Arkema supports its customers' recycling projects with its global collection service offer and offers partially recycled grades with a more favorable LCA profile.
Customers seek advanced materials that minimize climate change impacts, conserve natural resources, and maintain high performance. Arkema is well-equipped to meet these demands by offering partially recycled polyamide with a minimum content of 30% recycled content, which significantly lowers carbon emissions compared to virgin polyamide.

Our Certified Recycled Materials
Arkema offers more than 26 references of recycled polymer grades certified through an independent certification provided by SCS Global Services and certified for recycled content after conducting a thorough eligibility audit of our production and suppliers.
Arkema's certified recycled offer, part of its Virtucycle® program, covers PA11, PA12 and PEBA containing from 30% to 95% minimum recycled content.
Arkema collaborates with upstream and downstream partners from a wide variety of markets to develop high-performance polymer grades and guarantees that certified recycled high-performance materials have properties similar to virgin materials.
