from Waste to Resource

Comprehensive solution to convert plastic waste into industrial value and financial assets

Why now

Right now

Every second, more plastic gets a second life

Calculated on a capacity of 1,500 t/year since 29/10/2026: 1 kg of CO₂ avoided per kg of plastic (life cycle assessment by BASF and Sphera), €30/t Spanish state tax on landfilling municipal waste rejects (Law 7/2022) and a 70% oil yield.

Bilbao

Industrial plant 4 years of uninterrupted operation

Nantek plastic waste pyrolysis plant in Bilbao, in operation: reactor, condensers and cooling towers

The Bilbao plant has been turning mixed plastic waste into pyrolysis oil without interruption for 4 years, with ISCC PLUS certification. It is the same technology we install in every Nantek plant.

How it works

Pyrolysis: heat without oxygen, without combustion

Plastic is heated to over 400 °C in a closed reactor. Its chains break and turn into vapour which, once cooled, becomes pyrolysis oil. The gas that does not condense fuels the plant’s own burner.
