What We Do
Transforming local waste into high-value polymer raw materials, through industrial innovation.
We collaborate with cleanup and recycling partners to collect and sort degraded plastics from rivers, cities, and industrial waste streams.
Upgrading Plastic Waste
From Waste to Polymer.
Using thermomechanical technology and molecular chain extenders from BASF, we upgrade low-value plastic fractions into new, high-quality polymer pellets ready for industrial use.
Yarn Production & Application
From Polymer to Product
Our polymer compounds are spun into yarn and integrated into new textile products by our industrial partners.
This closes the loop between waste and new material production — locally and at scale.
Turning Waste into Industrial Value
Through decentralized, scalable production systems, we connect the global waste problem with the growing raw-material shortage.
Our approach transforms local waste into industrial value, creating economically viable and replicable solutions that can be implemented anywhere.

Our Projects
Reparell Innovation AB develops scalable solutions turning degraded plastic into new industrial feedstock. Each project connects waste, technology, and manufacturing through circular material logic — transforming local waste into global value.
End of Waste
Turning plastic waste into new polymer feedstock.
Upgrading degraded plastics into industrial-grade polymers using thermomechanical recycling and molecular chain extension. Developed in collaboration with BASF, RISE, and Everwave.
Yarn as a Service
From upgraded polymer to global textile production.
Creating spinnable yarns from recycled polymer that fit into existing textile machinery, enabling circular production at scale. Conducted together with Klimatledande Processindustri and RISE.
Local Production Systems
Decentralized and scalable.
Developing small, agile production units close to waste streams and industries to reduce logistics, emissions, and dependency on virgin materials. Collection supported by Everwave in Albania.
Industrial Collaboration
From chemistry to production.
Together with industrial partners, we connect material science, recycling technology, and textile manufacturing to create one circular value chain.
This collaboration bridges lab innovation with real production environments — proving that waste-based materials can perform in modern textile manufacturing.
Market Imbalance
Rising Demand, Limited Supply
The demand for recycled polymers is growing far faster than supply.
EU regulations like the Green Deal, Ecodesign, and CBAM accelerate the phase-out of fossil-based plastics — yet industrial producers still face a shortage of high-quality recycled feedstock.
Reparell Innovation closes this gap by transforming degraded waste into new industrial-grade polymers, ensuring stable pricing and secure raw-material access.
Sustainable Carbon
The Transition from Fossil to Circular
By 2050, over half of all carbon in materials must come from recycling.
Our model processes plastic waste locally — converting it into pellets close to both the origin of waste and the factories that reuse it.
Collection and sorting are already performed globally by NGOs and governments.
Factories are already in place.
We simply connect the two through industrial logic.
Industrial Logistics
Local Waste, Local Processing, Local Production
Our decentralized model minimizes transport and energy use by locating production near both waste streams and manufacturing sites.
Each unit operates as a modular, scalable system — transforming waste into ready-to-use polymer feedstock within regional industrial zones.
This creates an efficient, low-footprint logistics chain and ensures economic scalability without infrastructure overbuild.
