Brian Schellati, Director of Business Development for Van Dyk spoke about the design process: “Joining our experience in system design with Freepoint Eco-Systems’ dedication to finding renewable avenues for plastics led to a project that we believe is going to be very successful. The facility will accept post-sorted plastics from material recovery facilities. Those materials will pass through an advanced sortation system and then ultimately become pelletized.”
“Freepoint Eco-Systems is excited to be working with Van Dyk, a leader in North America for the installation of recycling and sorting systems, in connection with this project. We understand the importance of developing a system that is based on innovative, cutting-edge technology and state-of-the-art equipment. We believe that partnering with Van Dyk is the right decision, as we develop one of the largest commercial-scale advanced recycling facilities in the United States,” said Bilal Khan, Director of Engineering and Operations for Freepoint Eco-Systems.
The feedstock produced by the facility will have a smaller carbon footprint than crude oil-derived feedstocks and will contribute to a more circular economy for plastic production.
