For PET recycling and converting, EVERCYCLE™ products offer process stability, color control, and reduced acetaldehyde levels.

EVERCYCLE™ products are designed to help address both challenges. “Our formulated additive solutions advance the transition to a more circular economy by enabling more plastics to be recycled back into the economy. This will result in a more sustainable industry and create greater societal and economic benefit for all,” said Irfaan Foster, Market Development Director at SI Group.
The EVERCYCLE™ additive platform is the latest milestone in SI Group’s sustainability journey. “We continue to invest in innovation, driving forward our capabilities and expertise, to bring more sustainable solutions like EVERCYCLE™ additives to the market.
