Core Business Areas
- PET Depolymerization: Loop's core business revolves around its proprietary depolymerization technology, which breaks down PET plastic and polyester fibers into their constituent monomers (dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) and monoethylene glycol (MEG)). These monomers can then be purified and repolymerized to create virgin-quality PET plastic.
Leadership and Structure
Daniel Solomita is the Founder and CEO. The organizational structure is typical for a development-stage company, with functional departments focused on technology, operations, and business development.
Top Products and Market Share
Key Offerings
- Loopu2122 PET Resin: This is the primary product, virgin-quality PET resin made from 100% recycled content. Market share is emerging as the company commercializes its technology. Competitors include traditional PET resin manufacturers and other chemical recycling companies. The exact market share is not readily available due to the early commercialization phase.
Market Dynamics
Industry Overview
The PET recycling market is growing, driven by increasing environmental awareness and regulations promoting recycled content. Chemical recycling, including depolymerization, is gaining traction as a means to handle complex and contaminated plastic waste streams.
Positioning
Loop Industries aims to be a leader in chemical recycling of PET, providing a sustainable alternative to traditional PET production. Its competitive advantage is its proprietary depolymerization technology.
Total Addressable Market (TAM)
The global PET market is estimated in the hundreds of billions of USD. Loop Industries is positioning to capture a portion of this TAM by offering a sustainable alternative through chemical recycling. Market value expected by 2027 for chemical recycling is around $12 billion USD.
