FLO Materials is commercialising a new class of infinitely recyclable polymers called polydiketoenamines (PDKs) to enable sustainable manufacturing for hard-to-recycle plastics, including thermosets and mixed material composites used in durable goods. Spun out from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, FLO Materials aims to provide a turn-key transition to a more circular economy by combining a portfolio of recyclable materials and offering recycling as a service. Chemical recycling of PDKs through depolymerisation allows manufacturers to remove all additives, such as colours or plasticisers, and then remanufacture the recovered monomers into next-generation materials—without losing mechanical performance or aesthetic quality.
