Afry has secured an engineering services assignment from APK for developing its new plastics recycling plant in Germany. The new unit is expected to treat 40,000 tons of plastic waste every year.

Stockholm/Sweden – APK has awarded Afry with the engineering services assignment for the project development phases of its first industrial-scale plastics recycling plant using APK’s own Newcycling technology. The plant is to be built in Germany with a capacity of treating approx. 40,000 tons of plastic waste annually (t/a).

APK aims to increase the recycling of flexible packaging materials, which today make up the majority of mixed plastic waste from the post-consumer feeds. The Newcycling technology that has been developed by APK is a unique solvent-based process, which separates the different polymers of multi-layer plastics packaging materials and produces recycled materials with a high degree of purity suitable for new products.

Afry’s assignment includes the project development phases FEL-2 (pre-engineering) and FEL-3 (basic engineering) services for all engineering disciplines as well as permitting engineering and project scheduling. The assignment will provide the necessary information and investment value estimation in order for APK to make a final investment decision. The completion of the project development phases is expected by Q3 2023.
