We will provide the technology of the twin-screw extruder 'TEX' to the chemical recycling demonstration facility.

We are pleased to announce that our company will provide continuous decomposition technology used in chemical recycling to Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd. This technology continuously recovers MMA (methyl methacrylate) monomer from used acrylic resin (PMMA) using a twin-screw kneading extruder from the 'TEX Series'.
The 'TEX Series' twin-screw kneading extruder is expected to be applied not only for thermal recycling and material recycling purposes but also for chemical recycling applications. To meet societal needs for recycling technology, we plan to establish a chemical recycling center within our Hiroshima manufacturing facility in 2022.
Our group will continue to develop products that reduce environmental impact and aims to be a company that contributes to the realization and development of a sustainable society.
