Recently, Ascend and its Circular Polymers™ by Ascend participated in the North American Compounding Expo (Compounding
World Expo North America), highlighting Circular Polymers™ and ReDefyne™
Recycled product range.
Maria Field, Business Director, Circular Polymers™ by Ascend
On the afternoon of November 15th, he delivered a speech on the theme of “Polyamide Recycling, Circular Economy”, sharing how to recycle waste carpets without water treatment and regenerate them into high-performance materials.
Circular Polymers™ by Ascend
Leading proprietary process with manufacturing facilities located in California that recovers and regenerates post-consumer carpet waste into fibers and particles, with product lines including polyamide 6 (PA6) and polyamide 66 (PA66), polyester
Polymers such as (PET), polypropylene (PP) and calcium carbonate provide high-quality, sustainable raw materials for downstream applications such as injection molding and modification, achieving excellent recycling benefits.
Maria Field
“Recycling carpets can be so efficient, and our proprietary process allows us to turn waste that would otherwise be sent to landfill into feedstock, producing high-performance materials for use in automotive and electric vehicles, homewares, electronics and electronics products and other areas.”
As an integrated upstream and downstream manufacturer of high-performance engineering materials, Ascend launches ReDefyne™
The recycled polyamide product series is made of post-consumer recycled PCR materials and pre-consumer recycled PIR materials. It can be customized according to customer requirements. The utilization rate of recycled raw materials can reach 100%, and it can maintain reliable and excellent performance even in harsh application environments. performance and a low carbon footprint.
In late 2022, Ascend acquired recycled materials producer Circular Polymers
majority stake, unswervingly implements sustainable development strategy, and is committed to leading PA66 innovation. Circular Polymers™ by Ascend officially launches Cerene™ this year
The certified recycled product series continues the company’s development strategy, based on PA66, bringing high-performance recycled polymers such as PA6, PET and PP to the market.
Maria Field emphasized: “Global markets are looking for consistent and reliable post-consumer recycled materials, and Cerene™
Born out of necessity, our unique physical recycling process minimizes our carbon footprint and environmental impact. ”
Since its founding in 2018, Circular Polymers™ has repurposed approximately 40,000 tons of waste products that would otherwise have been sent to landfills into new products. Circular Polymers™
It has received multiple industry recognitions for its innovative technology, including the Plastics Industry Sustainability Innovation Award, the Plastics Recyclers Association Innovation Award, the California Product Stewardship Council Award, and the Carpet Recycling Processor Award.
Responsibility (empowering people), innovation (innovating solutions), persistence (operating without)
Compromise) are the three pillars of Ascend’s sustainable development strategy, and we always implement the sustainable development strategy in every aspect. We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint and recently announced the progress we have made towards the nine goals of the 2030 Sustainable Development Vision, including a 90% reduction in greenhouse gas scope 1 emissions, a 40% waste conversion rate in production operations, and two projects in Achievements in reducing product carbon footprint.
