Traditional recycling, or mechanical recycling, has been unsuccessful with less than 9% of the world’s plastics being recycled.
This equates to 4.3 million metric tonnes of GHG emission daily.
That is equivalent to 250 garbage trucks dumping plastics into the ocean/environment every hour.
This accounts for over 15% of the methane emission worldwide.

Our technology alters the physical form of plastics at the molecular level breaking them down to their original components.
Renu’s process is clean and safe with no combustion, chemical additives, or odors leaving zero environmental impact.
With our process, plastics can be infinitely recycled. Not only are we creating circularity, we are defining the benchmark of sustainability.
Accepting virtually all types of crude oil-based products, we can close the loop for up to 98% of this waste globally.
Plastic waste goes through pre-processing and size reduction to prepare them for maximum efficiency and quality.
Plastics move up the conveyor belt through a series of filters and magnets to remove any non-plastic materials.
Then the plastics go through a pre-heating process for optimal consistency in preparation for the next step.
The perfect thermal environment transforms the plastics into a vapor form, releasing their hydrocarbon molecules.
These hot vapor molecules (like steam) are cooled down as they pass through a condenser turning them into liquid form.
The liquid goes through a series of filters to separate the valuable bio-oils from any water and non-essential gasses.
The final product is blended to ensure consistency, then sent to responsible plastic makers to create circular products.
Because Renu is the direct manufacturer of our technology, we are able to streamline the process and deliver units in a matter of months, not years.
Renu’s leasing program eliminates the large upfront capital expense typical for this type of technology allowing more profits and a high IRR.
Our technology was developed 20 years ago and has been commercially proven. We continue to refine the process and had a new US patent granted in 2023.
Renu is a vertically integrated circularity company focusing on the convergence of sustainability and corporate strategy.
