ECOLOGICAL TRANSFORMATION OF PLASTICS

Thanks to their properties, plastics have revolutionised our daily life and

made it much easier. However, without proper collection and recycling,

plastics affect our environment, harm the planet and have a long-lasting

impact on ecosystems. It is one of the main environmental challenges we

have to tackle today.

This is why, at a time when the ecological emergency is becoming a major

issue, many companies have decided to act to limit the used volumes of

virgin resin and to accelerate the transition towards a circular economy

for plastics.

In the context of numerous regulatory implementations, brands and

customers deeply reinvent production and consumption habits. Circular

polymers are now recognised as a valuable solution for a responsible use

of plastics, reduced carbon footprint and more resource savings. These are

all arguments to which stakeholders, whether shareholders, investors,

customers, citizens or public authorities, are highly aware.

In order to support our industrial clients in their transformation, Veolia

is proud to announce the launch of PlastiLoop, our new brand of readyto-use circular polymers.

Thanks to the combination of a wide network of experts and years of

experience, PlastiLoop is offering a unique and structured range of resin

grades, addressing the needs of our industrial clients for many of their

applications, even for the most stringent standards applicable on their

markets. Our solution provides a customised approach for each industry.

With PlastiLoop, we ensure reliable sourcing and guaranteed performance

tailored to your products.

We are committed to being your long-term partner to help you meet

your commercial, industrial and environmental challenges. More than

ever, with PlastiLoop, Veolia strives to be, with you, the champion of

ecological transformation.

Based on a wide variety of resins, the PlastiLoop

range of circular polymers is backed by proven

industrial processes and a truly responsible

approach. Here is an overview of the benefits for you. → Guaranteeing

the reliability and

quality you expect

PlastiLoop offers you high quality

products with properties that meet

your technical requirements and

fit consistently into your industrial

production chain. Veolia has substantial

expertise from upstream to downstream

and perfectly masters and secures

the full recycling value chain.

Our activities start at waste collection,

and using our high tech factories continue

through separation, shredding,

washing, compounding, and extrusion,

to which post-treatment steps can

potentially be added. We strictly select

raw materials and ensure quality control

of PlastiLoop products. All of these

steps are necessary to manufacture

ready-to-use circular polymers.

→ Supporting you

in meeting your

environmental challenges

By nature, PlastiLoop is your partner

to accelerate the transition to a circular

economy for plastics. By opting for our

circular solutions, you reduce the volume

of virgin plastic used, limit the consumption

of natural resources and reduce your CO

emissions by more than 70%. This way,

you optimise your environmental

footprint without compromising the quality

of your products.

ECOLOGICAL TRANSFORMATION OF PLASTICS

A CUSTOMISED

APPROACH

TO MEET

YOUR NEEDS

Working alongside you, our experts support

your circular economy strategy and the successful

integration of recycled resins. With our extensive

product range and continuous developments,

we strive to meet all of your expectations.

As an automotive supplier

with an industry-leading

portfolio in sustainable

materials, we are uniquely

positioned to provide innovative

solutions to carmakers and

their customers. By combining

our innovation and industrial

forces with Veolia, we will

accelerate the introduction

of breakthrough sustainable

materials and their time-tomarket, as well as contributing

to reducing plastic waste

and strengthening

the circular economy.

A GLOBAL LEADER IN

AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY

Thanks to the recycled resins that Veolia has been

faithfully supplying us for many years, we are

manufacturing high-performance products,

dedicated in particular to the treatment of rainwater,

which perfectly meet our requirements and

quality controls. This reduces our carbon footprint

and gives us lighter modules with the advantage

of also being recyclable.

A LEADING MANUFACTURER OF CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS

We are committed, as pioneers

of the circular economy, to support

local authorities in solving the

plastic waste challenge. We have

therefore entered into a long-term

partnership with Veolia,

which has built a dedicated

PET recycling plant, enabling us

to triple the content of recycled

PET in our bottles. There is

a double benefit: it increases

the collection and local

recycling of plastic waste

and provides our customers

with more environmentally

friendly plastic bottles.

A WORLD LEADING

FOOD COMPANY

Together with Veolia, we have created the first closed-loop

for polypropylene flower pots. Veolia collects the used

plastic pots that our customers drop off in our shops

and recycles them into pellets that are then transformed

into new flower pots. In a truly ecological approach,

our products are 100% recycled and 100% recyclable,

which saves resources.

A CHAIN OF GARDEN CENTRES

Since 2010, we have been

implementing a strategy to use

recycled plastic in our products,

which represents up to three times

less CO2 emissions than virgin

plastic. Veolia quickly convinced us

that they were the good partner to

meet our objectives and requirements.

Among others, its presence as

operator for the local WEEE Extended

Producer Responsibility scheme

was a decisive contribution to set

a closed loop post consumer solution.

After a development and test

phase during which many technical

challenges have been overcome,

our first products incorporating

recycled material were put on the

market. Within the company, recycled

plastic is now seen as being a major

plus in terms of customer value.
