CycleZyme
The next-generation enzyme platform for plastic recycling – from PET to nylon
Enzymes powering the future of recycling
Cyclezyme has developed an advanced enzymatic platform designed to enable greener biochemical processes and accelerate the transition toward circular material flows. By using cutting-edge biotechnology, the platform identifies, develops and optimizes enzymes capable of breaking down plastics, such as PET and polyamide (nylon), into valuable new building blocks.
Having already established the platform, Cyclezyme is now focused on scaling up the technology together with selected collaboration partners. The ambition is to apply highly tailored enzymes to specific streams of plastic and textile waste with greater precision, efficiency and environmental performance.
​
Through systematic experimentation, process development and advanced data analysis, Cyclezyme continues to improve enzyme performance and optimize recycling processes for scalable, sustainable transformation of plastics, including PET and polyamide. The platform is a core part of Cyclezyme’s technology and a key driver in the Company’s mission to contribute to a more sustainable future.
Cyclezyme contributes to a circular plastic economy
We are proud to be involved and contribute to the development of a circular society when it comes to plastic handling. Through enzymatic recycling of plastic materials, it will reduce plastic waste and promote the reuse of plastic. Recycling not only contributes to reduced use of virgin raw materials and fossil fuels, but also strengthens the pursuit of a more sustainable management of resources. Cyclezyme works to support the UN's sustainability goals 12 (sustainable consumption and production), 13 (climate measures) and 14 (conserve and sustainably use the oceans and marine resources). We are committed to transforming waste into valuable resources and thus supporting a sustainable and circular economy.
