BEWI’s commitment to a circular economy
At BEWI, sustainability is not just a goal—it’s a responsibility. Our mission is to close the loop on expanded polystyrene (EPS) by ensuring that materials are not discarded as waste but are continuously collected, recycled, and reused in new applications. By integrating circular economy principles into our entire value chain, we minimize environmental impact, reduce CO₂ emissions, and create a truly circular material flow.
How BEWI closes the loop
Collection of used EPS waste
- BEWI operates EPS collection points across all Europe
- We collect clean EPS waste from businesses, municipalities, and industries
- Customers can use drop-off locations, bags, bins, or compactors for efficient collection
Impact: Diverts EPS waste from incineration and reduces plastic pollution
Smart recycling & reprocessing
- Collected EPS is processed at BEWI Circular facilities
- EPS is compacted, shredded, and melted into high-quality recycled general-purpose polystyrene (rGPPS)
- Advanced material purification and processing ensure that recycled content meets high-quality standards
Impact: Transforms used EPS into raw material for new applications, reducing virgin plastic use
Reuse in new products
- rGPPS is reintegrated into new packaging, insulation, and construction materials
- Our products contain an increasing percentage of recycled content, reducing dependency on fossil-based resources
- We collaborate with manufacturers to expand the use of recycled EPS in various industries
Impact: Extends the lifespan of EPS and contributes to a fully circular economy
Reducing carbon footprint & waste
- Our closed-loop system significantly reduces CO₂ emissions compared to virgin plastic production
- Optimised logistics and transport solutions lower environmental impact
- We invest in low-carbon EPS alternatives, including bio-based and innovative materials
Impact: Creates sustainable, low-emission solutions for industries worldwide
