7 NEWS PETplanet Insider Vol. 25 Krones Recycling is spun off as an independent subsidiary company With 25 years’ experience in the field of recycling, Krones has now taken the decision to pool its recycling expertise in the independent subsidiary Krones Recycling GmbH from July 2024. A logical step, as Krones CEO Christoph Klenk explains: “The spin-off will enable Krones Recycling to develop faster and in line with market requirements. Because in line with our claim ‘Solutions beyond tomorrow’, this division makes a decisive contribution to protecting the environment by returning plastic waste to the value-added cycle.” In addition, thanks to leaner processes and structures, the new company will be able to respond more quickly to changes in the constantly changing recycling market, says Michael Gotsche, Managing Director of Krones Recycling GmbH: “The newly founded company offers us the necessary flexibility and scope for action to be able to implement decisions in a customer-oriented, fast and optimised manner.” A large number of plastics such as PET, PE, PP and PS are already being processed on Krones Recycling’s lines worldwide. “Our vision is to make a daily contribution to a global circular economy for all plastics by offering our customers sustainable and profitable recycling solutions,” says Michael Gotsche, describing the overarching business objective. Consequently, Krones Recycling will continue to conduct intensive research into new innovations at its in-house Recycling Technology Centre. There, tests on the recyclability of various plastics, including adhesives and colours, can also be carried out under real conditions on behalf of customers. www.krones.com CREATING FUTURE STANDARDS Japan’s leading Aseptic PET Filling System Provider.
