SOREMA has been selected by Total Recycling for a new polypropylene (PP) recycling line to be installed in Timișoara, Romania. The new line is currently scheduled to start up in mid-2027.

SOREMA’s high-quality PP washing recycling line will be installed in Total Recycling’s plant in Timisoara, Romania.

This project marks an important step in SOREMA’s development in the European recycling market. It also further strengthens its established presence in Romania as it will be the first SOREMA line in Romania specifically dedicated to the production of high-quality recycled PP.

With a capacity of 2 t/h, SOREMA’s recycling line will process PP material sourced from both local Romanian collection streams and other EU countries. The plant will cover the recycling process from sorting to washing, including a batch hot-washing stage, with the aim of achieving the high material quality required for demanding PP recycling applications.

Proven expertise in recycling

The project comes at a time when investment decisions across the recycling industry are becoming increasingly selective. In this environment, recyclers are paying even greater attention not only to technological performance, but also to proven expertise, reliability and the long-term solidity of their technology partners.

The decision by Total Recycling to invest in a SOREMA solution therefore takes on particular significance. Backed by decades of experience in plastics recycling and by the industrial strength of the PREVIERO Group, SOREMA continues to demonstrate its ability to support ambitious recycling projects even in a more cautious market environment.

For both companies, the new Timișoara plant represents a forward-looking investment in the development of high-quality polypropylene recycling in Europe.
