reValyu Resources, a global plastic bottle recycling company, has commissioned a second plant at its Nashik, India site, boosting total PET recycling capacity to 280 tonnes per day at the world’s largest PET plastic recycling facility, the company revealed in a statement on Thursday.

The site comprises three independent recycling plants. This includes two with a capacity of 120 tonnes per day for producing 100% recycled PET chips — one recently commissioned, with the second set for Q3 2025 — and a 40-tonne-per-day plant producing recycled specialty chips and textile yarns.

The $100 million investment leverages advanced glycolysis-based technology, cutting water use by 75% and energy consumption by 91% compared to traditional PET production.

“Our 100% post-consumer recycled polymer can seamlessly replace conventional PET in any polyester or PET application. Our new plant demonstrates two critical achievements: first, that this chemical recycling process is commercially viable on a global scale, and second, that it operates with an impressively low environmental footprint,” says revalyu Group’s Managing Director Jan van Kisfeld.

The recent commissioning of a second plant has doubled the site's daily recycling capacity to 160 tonnes. These outputs support industries ranging from packaging and textiles to automotive accessories, helping customers meet sustainability goals across diverse applications.

“Our Nashik site underscores…(that)...this environmentally sustainable chemical recycling process is scalable and replicable," says Makarand Kulkarni, CEO, revalyu India.

The company plans to establish a 240-tonne-per-day PET recycling facility in the United States by 2027, as part of its goal to expand its global production capacity to over 1,000 tonnes per day by 2030 through strategic partnerships. In 2023, it announced an initial $50 million investment for the first phase of this US facility.

The company’s first chemical full glycolysis recycling plant is also in Nashik, India. In 2022 Heraeus Group, a Fortune 500 technology German company acquired the major stake in revalyu Resources.
