"At Repsol, we are accelerating the circular economy of plastics through concrete actions. One of the most significant is the launch of a new production line for polyolefins with mechanically recycled content at our Puertollano Industrial Complex. With an investment of €26 million, we have significantly increased our production capacity to 25,000 tonnes per year, almost double the current level. This new facility enables us to produce high- and low-density polyethylene with recycled plastic content ranging from 10% to 80%, intended for real applications such as rigid and flexible packaging for non-food use. During the talk, it will be explained why this investment is key not only from an industrial perspective but also a strategic one: it strengthens our Repsol Reciclex® range, aligns us with European packaging regulations and positions Puertollano as a benchmark for plastic recycling in the Iberian Peninsula.

The transformation of our industrial complexes is a cornerstone of Repsol’s roadmap towards net zero emissions by 2050, driving high value-added products with a lower carbon footprint."
