Heiko Pfister, Managing Partner of Pekutherm, identifies Italy, Spain, France, and the Baltic States as key target markets for expansion. Additionally, the company plans to broaden its operations in Northern Europe, building on its existing presence in Denmark and Finland.<\/p>\n<p>Pekutherm&#8217;s expansion is driven by environmental and climate concerns rather than purely economic considerations, assures Managing Partner Heiko Pfister. According to his research, Europe generates approximately 30,000 tonnes of PMMA waste annually. Of this, 5,000 tonnes are recycled in Geisenheim for reuse, while the rest is processed elsewhere, often ending in incineration. &#8220;A significant portion is collected in Europe and shipped to Asia, where the recycling rate is likely very low,&#8221; Pfister warns. His plan for Pekutherm is to double the PMMA recycling volume to 10,000 tonnes within the next three years. This effort will also include an additional 1,000 tonnes of polycarbonate (PC) and 1,000 tonnes of other plastics already being recycled in Geisenheim. &#8220;For every 100 tonnes of recycled material used, nearly 500 tonnes of carbon dioxide can be saved,&#8221; explains Pfister, highlighting the climate protection benefits of the circular economy. He further emphasizes that the recycled materials meet new raw material standards in terms of purity and quality, underscoring the environmental benefits of reusing these resources.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-image-element \" style=\"--awb-margin-bottom:10px;--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-2 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"568\" alt=\"Acrylic glass recyclate from Pekutherm\" title=\"Acrylic glass recyclate from Pekutherm\" src=\"https:\/\/pekutherm.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Acrylglas-Rezyklat-transparent.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive wp-image-1886\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pekutherm.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Acrylglas-Rezyklat-transparent-200x142.jpg 200w, https:\/\/pekutherm.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Acrylglas-Rezyklat-transparent-400x284.jpg 400w, https:\/\/pekutherm.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Acrylglas-Rezyklat-transparent-600x426.jpg 600w, https:\/\/pekutherm.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Acrylglas-Rezyklat-transparent.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-3 fusion-text-no-margin\" style=\"--awb-font-size:16px;--awb-line-height:16px;--awb-text-transform:none;--awb-margin-bottom:20px;\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Image: Acrylic glass recyclate from Pekutherm<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4\" style=\"--awb-text-transform:none;\"><p>Pekutherm, founded in 1985 by Erwin Pfister and continued by his son Heiko, will be celebrating its 40th anniversary next year.

Heiko Pfister, reflecting on their methods, emphasizes, &#8220;We require one hundred percent type-specific separation, which no technology can reliably achieve.&#8221; Despite experimenting with infrared and other detection methods, Pfister notes, &#8220;The margin of error remains too high.&#8221; Pfister, as CEO, underscores their commitment to delivering flawless quality: &#8220;Our customers rightfully demand <strong>one hundred percent pure recyclate<\/strong> for their production.

As part of its international expansion efforts, the company is actively seeking partners who can provide PMMA or PC remnants. To facilitate this initiative, Pekutherm provides specialized <strong>collection boxes<\/strong> for on-site waste collection. Once filled, these containers are transported to the Geisenheim plant where the contents are processed into granules.<\/p>\n<p>Manufacturers across Europe committed to fostering a circular economy for the betterment of climate and environmental protection are highly sought-after as partners.

Under this program, customers of Exolon Group are encouraged to collaborate with Pekutherm as their recycling partner for offcuts and waste materials generated during new material purchases. Pekutherm facilitates this process by providing complimentary collection containers known as <a href=\"https:\/\/pekutherm.de\/en\/ecobox\/\"><u>Ecoboxes<\/u><\/a>, which are retrieved when full. The company compensates based on the quantity of waste collected. Following processing at the Geisenheim facility, the resulting granulate becomes available to manufacturers like Exolon Group for reuse in their production cycles.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-1 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column fusion-animated\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:0px;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-spacing-right-medium:0px;--awb-spacing-left-medium:0px;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-spacing-right-small:0px;--awb-spacing-left-small:0px;\" data-animationType=\"fadeIn\" data-animationDuration=\"0.7\" data-animationOffset=\"top-into-view\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-video fusion-youtube fusion-no-small-visibility fusion-no-medium-visibility\" style=\"--awb-max-width:1000px;--awb-max-height:563px;--awb-align-self:center;--awb-width:100%;\"><div class=\"video-shortcode\"><div class=\"fluid-width-video-wrapper\" style=\"padding-top:56.3%;\" > <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-container brlbs-cmpnt-content-blocker brlbs-cmpnt-with-individual-styles\" data-borlabs-cookie-content-blocker-id=\"youtube-content-blocker\" data-borlabs-cookie-content=\"PGlmcmFtZSB0aXRsZT0iWW91VHViZSB2aWRlbyBwbGF5ZXIgMSIgc3JjPSJodHRwczovL3d3dy55b3V0dWJlLW5vY29va2llLmNvbS9lbWJlZC9SUW5nbE9VcEpZVT93bW9kZT10cmFuc3BhcmVudCZhdXRvcGxheT0wJmFtcDtyZWw9MCIgd2lkdGg9IjEwMDAiIGhlaWdodD0iNTYzIiBhbGxvd2Z1bGxzY3JlZW4gYWxsb3c9ImF1dG9wbGF5OyBjbGlwYm9hcmQtd3JpdGU7IGVuY3J5cHRlZC1tZWRpYTsgZ3lyb3Njb3BlOyBwaWN0dXJlLWluLXBpY3R1cmU7Ij48L2lmcmFtZT48c2NyaXB0IGRhdGEtYm9ybGFicy1jb29raWUtc2NyaXB0LWJsb2NrZXItaWdub3JlPgooZnVuY3Rpb24oKSB7CiAgICBjb25zdCBmdXNpb25WaWRlbyA9IGRvY3VtZW50LmN1cnJlbnRTY3JpcHQuY2xvc2VzdCgnLmZ1c2lvbi12aWRlbycpOwogICAgaWYgKCFmdXNpb25WaWRlbyB8fCB0eXBlb2YgalF1ZXJ5ID09PSAndW5kZWZpbmVkJykgewogICAgICAgIHJldHVybjsKICAgIH0KICAgICFqUXVlcnkoZnVzaW9uVmlkZW8pLnBhcmVudHMoIi5mdXNpb24tbW9kYWwiKS5sZW5ndGggJiYgMSA9PSBqUXVlcnkoZnVzaW9uVmlkZW8pLmRhdGEoImF1dG9wbGF5IikgJiYgalF1ZXJ5KGZ1c2lvblZpZGVvKS5pcygiOnZpc2libGUiKSAmJiBqUXVlcnkoZnVzaW9uVmlkZW8pLmZpbmQoImlmcmFtZSIpLmVhY2goKGZ1bmN0aW9uICgpIHsKICAgICAgalF1ZXJ5KHRoaXMpLmhhc0NsYXNzKCJsYXp5bG9hZCIpID8galF1ZXJ5KHRoaXMpLm9uKCJsYXp5bG9hZGVkIiwgKGZ1bmN0aW9uICgpIHsKICAgICAgICB0aGlzLmNvbnRlbnRXaW5kb3cubG9jYXRpb24ucmVwbGFjZShqUXVlcnkodGhpcykuYXR0cigiZGF0YS1vcmlnLXNyYyIpLnJlcGxhY2UoImF1dG9wbGF5PTAiLCAiYXV0b3BsYXk9MSIpKQogICAgICB9KSkgOiBqUXVlcnkodGhpcykuYXR0cigic3JjIiwgalF1ZXJ5KHRoaXMpLmF0dHIoInNyYyIpLnJlcGxhY2UoImF1dG9wbGF5PTAiLCAiYXV0b3BsYXk9MSIpKQogICAgfSkpCn0pKCk7Cjwvc2NyaXB0Pg==\"><div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-preset-c brlbs-cmpnt-cb-youtube\"> <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-thumbnail\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/pekutherm.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/borlabs-cookie\/1\/yt_RQnglOUpJYU_hqdefault.jpg')\"><\/div> <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-main\"> <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-play-button\"><\/div> <div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-content\"> <p class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-description\">You are currently viewing a placeholder content from <strong>YouTube<\/strong>.

As part of a take-back and recycling program, Pekutherm sorts, processes and granulates Plexiglas waste. The recycled raw material is re-incorporated into original Plexiglas products.<\/p>\n<p>Heiko Pfister classifies the recycling programs for Plexiglas and Exolon polycarbonate as &#8220;role models for a functioning circular economy&#8221;. He explains his expansion plans: &#8220;We want to enable manufacturers and processors throughout Europe to contribute to the circular economy and thus to environmental and climate protection without having to make significant investments in their own collection concepts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"--awb-margin-bottom:10px;--awb-font-size:22px;\"><h2 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;font-size:1em;\">Acrylic Glass Production Continues Steady Global Growth<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-12\" style=\"--awb-text-transform:none;\"><p>The global production of acrylic glass has been steadily increasing for many years due to its qualities as a shatterproof, lightweight, and easily moldable plastic that finds applications across diverse industries. From automotive and construction to healthcare, lighting technology, and various household items, acrylic glass is used in windows, car hoods, headlight covers, signage, contact lenses, spectacle lenses, bone cement, hearing aid molds, dental crowns, greenhouses, bowls, and flat screens, among countless others.<\/p>\n<p>According to market analysts, global production of acrylic glass sheets surged from 1.8 million tonnes in 2000 to 4.1 million tonnes in 2020. Projections indicate this volume will continue to rise, reaching an estimated 9.5 million tonnes by 2029.* &#8220;Given the substantial growth forecasted across various market analyses, it becomes both an ecological imperative and an economic opportunity to recycle the increasing volume of waste from offcuts and obsolete material,&#8221; remarks Heiko Pfister.<\/p>\n<p>* Sources:<br \/>\n<a
