At Borealis, we’ve been developing and supplying recycled polyolefin solutions for over a decade. This experience gives us a deep understanding of the challenges our customers face in balancing technical performance, regulatory compliance, and cost effectiveness. Just as critical is the assurance of consistent quality and reliable supply.
To meet these needs, we operate three advanced mechanical recycling sites across Europe. The materials produced at these locations feed into our two dedicated mechanical recycling portfolios: Borcycle™ M, our range of premium mechanically recycled post-consumer solutions designed for technically demanding, high-performance applications, and Recleo™, a range of cost-effective, mechanically recycled post-industrial and post-consumer fit-for-purpose solutions.
Together, these portfolios give our customers access to recycled polyolefins that meet a wide range of performance and compliance requirements at competitive cost, backed by the reliable quality and supply they depend on.

With more than 30 years of experience, mtm plastics is one of Europe’s technology leaders in recycling mixed post-consumer plastic waste. Each year, the site has a capacity of around 40,000 metric tons, making it one of the continent’s largest producers of post-consumer polyolefin recyclates.
At mtm, the focus is on converting complex mixed household waste into polypropylene (PP) and mixed polyolefin recyclates. This enables customers to meet demanding performance requirements in injection molding applications while increasing post-consumer content.

Ecoplast has over 35 years of experience in recycling flexible plastics. The site specializes in converting highly contaminated household and commercial waste into low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) recyclates suitable for thin film production.
Ecoplast’s capacity of around 30,000 metric tons helps to meet strong customer demand for high-quality recycled polymers for flexible film applications.

Built in 2019 with state-of-the-art equipment, Integra Plastics was upgraded in 2025 to incorporate our Borcycle M advanced mechanical recycling technology.
With a capacity of 20,000 metric tons per year, the plant converts post-consumer waste into recycled PP granules. These materials are in high demand among customers in the consumer packaging sector as they respond to the requirements of the EU’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR).

Together, these locations provide substantial production capacity alongside a broad range of technical capabilities. Each site is RecyClass certified, which verifies the origin of recycled inputs and ensures full traceability of materials throughout the process, from incoming waste to finished pellet.
Through this scale and independent certification, we increase both the availability and reliability of mechanically recycled polyolefins, making them a simple, practical choice for our customers, and helping to keep more valuable materials in the loop.
