Closing the loop for polyamide 6 in the automotive sector

From automotive shredder fraction to performance parts

Join us for an insightful session exploring advanced approaches for recycling Polyamide 6 (PA6) from end-of-life vehicles and automotive shredder residue (ASR). Two pilot projects demonstrate both solvent-based and depolymerization methods for recovering high-performance glass fiber–reinforced Ultramid compounds.

The findings not only confirm the recyclability of polyamide but also highlight the vital importance of technological openness and collaboration across the entire supply chain. Discover how these initiatives are setting new benchmarks for economically viable and environmentally responsible circular solutions in the automotive sector.
