Who We Are

Pyrolysis plant specialists for plastic waste

Nantek designs, builds, finances and operates pyrolysis plants that turn non-recyclable plastic waste into second-life feedstock and fuels. We are an industrial company focused on a single technology, and we master it from start to finish.

We work with waste managers, landfills, industry and public authorities that need a definitive solution for their plastic rejects, with a single point of contact from the feasibility study to plant operation and the sale of its output.

Our aim is to be the reference in plastic waste pyrolysis: the place to go to understand the technology and to make it happen.

● Our technology

Proprietary technology, proven at industrial scale

Developed and tested at our plant in the Port of Bilbao with plastics from a range of sources.

Catalyst-free thermal pyrolysis

Proprietary thermal pyrolysis process, using reactive agents developed by Nantek.

Mixed plastic, no prior sorting

Accepts the plastic rejects that mechanical recycling cannot use, without sorting them by type first.

Modular plants

A range from 1,500 to 16,000 tonnes a year, sized to each client’s waste.

Certified product

ISCC, ISCC PLUS and CGN certifications and ECHA registration to market the pyrolysis oil.
● Our organisation

Behind every plant, a multidisciplinary team

Engineers, assembly and maintenance technicians, lawyers, finance specialists, accountants and administrative staff work at Nantek from our offices and on the sites of each project. Each area covers a stage in the life cycle of a plant, so the client has a single point of contact.

● Knowledge centre

Everything about plastic waste pyrolysis

We explain the technology, regulation and economics of pyrolysis in open guides for waste managers, industry and public authorities.

What is pyrolysis

How it turns plastic that cannot be recycled into feedstock.

Pyrolysis oil, gas and char

What products pyrolysis generates and what each one is used for.

Chemical vs mechanical recycling

How they differ and when each one is needed.

PPWR and recycled content

What the EU packaging regulation requires for 2030 and 2040.

Mass balance

How recycled content from chemical recycling is certified.

How a plant is financed

The EPC model, financing and guaranteed offtake of the output.
