OUR
HISTORY
Leading the development and commercialization of technologies and innovations in existing markets is very difficult work. Creating a new industry is a whole other matter. Agilyx and its small team has been hard at work over the last 14 years developing technologies, know how and comprehensive solution platforms essentially marrying the interests of the waste and recycling industries with petrochemical industries.
Our passion for solving the plastic waste problem and turning plastics into a long term durable carbon source, has motivated and propelled us to where we are today. Today we are working with partners all over the world to scale the various options for converting waste plastics into valuable resources. Below is a sampling of the efforts we have exerted. We are very proud of our heritage.
