BoReTech PET recycling technology receives positive EFSA opinion

In November 2025, BoReTech receives a positive scientific opinion from the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) for its PET recycling process brtCOMBIPET.

This certification, completed in accordance with the latest EU Regulation 2022/1616, marks BoReTech as one of the few PET mechanical recycling process providers worldwide to have passed this stringent assessment.

Since its formal implementation in September 2022, this new EU regulation shifts the focus of process safety assessment from recyclers to technology developers and significantly raises requirements for cleaning efficiency and contaminant limits.

BoReTech’s advanced bottle-to-bottle PET recycling technology system successfully meets all scientific requirements set by EFSA for a “high-efficiency decontamination process”, a key requirement for recycled plastics intended for direct food contact.

The EFSA expert panel confirmed that key stages in BoReTech’s PET recycling process, including extrusion, preheating, and solid-state polycondensation (SSP), are central to achieve the required decontamination performance.

Test results indicated that the recycled Pet produced by BoReTech’s technology is safe and reliable. It can be used 100% in the production of food contact materials for all types of food, including drinking water, and is suitable for long-term storage at room temperature, low temperatures, and even under hot-fill conditions.

The next step lies with the European Commission, which will decide whether to grant formal authorization for the decontamination process and assign a Recycling Process Authorization Number (RAN). Once issued, the RAN can be licensed by BoReTech to PET recyclers seeking to produce food-grade recycled PET for the European market.

BoReTech remains committed to empowering sustainability through innovative recycling technology, striving to serve as a solution provider and operational partner across the entire plastics recycling industry chain.
