Closed-Loop Recycling

Closed-loop recycling is a process where materials are continuously recycled and reused within the same production system/factory.

 

Instead of discarding waste, this approach allows you to seamlessly reintegrate your own materials back into your production line, conserving resources and minimizing environmental impact.

​

  • Resource Efficiency: By reintroducing your own materials into the manufacturing process, we help you reduce waste and maximize resource utilization.

​

  • Preservation of Material Integrity: Our unique approach requires no chemicals, heat or any pollution. This method maintains the original formulation, including maintaining the same color, or even transparency, ensuring that the end product retains its high-quality characteristics.

​

  • Environmental Sustainability: This process minimizes waste and supports environmental sustainability by reducing the need for new raw materials and decreasing overall waste generation.

​

  • Financial Advantages: Closed-loop recycling offers clear financial benefits, including reduced material costs and enhanced process efficiency, leading to lower production costs and a positive economic impact.

 

By adopting our closed-loop recycling method, you not only contribute to a more sustainable planet but also achieve significant improvements in your business operations.

Pre-consumer Waste

Pre-consumer waste refers to high-quality scraps generated during manufacturing, prior to the product reaching the end consumer.

 

At Fanilo Incorporated, we specialize in collecting and purchasing these valuable elastomer scraps from nearby countries, helping businesses improve their Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and bolster their sustainability initiatives.

 

By reintegrating these scraps back into production, we offer them a second life while supporting a sustainable manufacturing cycle. This approach reduces waste, conserves resources, and contributes to a circular economy.

​


Moreover, we can handle any type of elastomer material, regardless of the curing system used. Our expertise spans from all materials, such as carbon based Bisphenol, Peroxide FKM, all the way to non-filler Nitrile/ Triazine FFKM.

 

Our R&D team specializes in recycling diverse elastomers, ensuring that even the most complex curing systems are efficiently managed for sustainability, making us leaders in sustainable rubber recycling.

Post-consumer Waste (Industrial post-recycling)

Post-consumer waste refers to materials discarded after their initial use by consumers, often ending up in incineration or landfills. In the semiconductor industry, for example, hundreds of tons of FFKM (perfluoroelastomer) waste are generated annually, typically discarded as hazardous waste due to the presence of harmful chemicals.

​

At AKRON, we address this challenge by using specialized cleaning instruments in our plant, or with third-party to process and recycle these materials.

Although the recycled FFKM may be slightly downgraded, it is still usable in other applications, contributing to a more sustainable future. Our approach reduces the environmental impact of waste disposal, conserves valuable resources, and supports a circular economy by giving these materials a second life.
