OSLO, Norway – March 20th, 2025 – Agilyx ASA (OSE: AGLX; OTCQX: AGXXF) (“Agilyx” or “the company”) announces that production of styrene via Styrenyx, its proprietary polystyrene recycling technology, significantly reduces carbon equivalent emissions compared to producing styrene from fossil resources.
To better assess the carbon footprint of our advanced recycling, post-consumer waste circular styrene production, Agilyx commissioned Sphera Solutions, Inc. to perform a cradle-to-gate product carbon footprint (PCF) and compare results to conventional production of styrene from fossil resources. Results indicate that Agilyx’s process lowers carbon equivalent emissions by 38% using average grid electricity and 86% using wind electricity as compared to conventional styrene made from fossil resources. The study has been conducted according to the requirements of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14067:2019-02 (ISO, 2019) and is currently undergoing independent critical review by 3rd party expert, in accordance with ISO/TS 14071:2014 (ISO, 2024). The expert review is expected to be complete in Q2 2025.
For context, these results indicate that an Agilyx facility producing 18,000 metric tons of styrene annually and powered by grid electricity could reduce the equivalent of ~15,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions compared to conventional styrene. This is equivalent to removing ~3,500 gasoline cars off the road for a year (~6.4 million litres /1.7 million gallons of gasoline) or the amount of CO2 sequestered by 245,000 tree seedlings over a decade (US EPA, 2024). Global production of styrene is projected to reach 16.75 million tonnes by 2026. If 10% of this volume were produced using Styrenyx, it would be the equivalent to removing 325,000 gasoline cars from the road annually.
“We are extremely encouraged by these results and remain committed to further reducing our carbon footprint” said Chris Faulkner, Chief Technology Officer of Agilyx. “By leveraging sustainable energy sources and innovative recycling technologies, we will reduce global carbon emissions and help solve the plastic waste challenge.”

Two industrial-scale Cyclyx Circularity Centers in construction
The two USA-based centers have a combined capacity to produce approximately 150ktpa of custom feedstock for advanced recycling technologies.
On advanced recycling technology
Eight generations of technology development, a polystyrene waste recycling facility running on Styrenyx advanced recycling technology licensed to Toyo Styrene (a member of Denka Group), and 22 patents active in North America, the Middle East, Mexico and Asia.
Given the complexity of plastics, and the difficulty in sourcing post-use plastics,
feedstock availability is a enormous industry BOTTLENECK
With seven primary types of plastic and countless combinations of additives and contaminants, the plastic waste stream is incredibly complex and poses significant challenges for recyclers. Despite high demand for quality feedstock, many materials including films, foams, and multi-layer packaging are not widely accepted in easily accessible recycling services (curbside systems and drop-off facilities), leading to inconsistent recovery and limited supply. Adding to this challenge, each recycling technology requires a specific feedstock profile to operate efficiently.
Plastyx will address the feedstock supply shortage
New regulations and increased consumer environmental awareness are pressuring brands to increase their recycled content targets.
By 2030, advanced recycling supply capacity will lag announced required demand by 50%. This creates a significant challenge accessing appropriate feedstock to supply advanced recycling production facilities.

Strong growth in feedstock demand is supported by market conditions, presenting a unique investment opportunity in plastic recycling infrastructure.
There is substantial profit potential in the recycled plastics market
$2,000 per metric ton
Significant margins of up to $2,000 per metric ton available throughout the value chain
McKinsey: A unique moment in time: Scaling plastics circularity
$1,500 premium
Plastics derived from advanced recycling processes are commanding a premium, often selling for $1,500 or more per metric ton compared to traditional fossil fuel-based plastics.
McKinsey: Beyond the Bottle: Solutions for recycling challenging plastics
Premiums driven by a significant supply-demand imbalance
These high premiums are driven by a significant supply-demand imbalance. The availability of feedstock for advanced recycling lags behind announced capacity by as much as 60%.* Addressing this demand highlights the vital importance of Cyclyx Circularity Centers in fostering circularity and improving the handling of post-use plastic waste.

Moving towards a
lower-carbon future
Working with our customers, we are creating and supporting circular models where plastics can be used, recycled, and reused again and again. Closing the loop by replacing virgin plastic production with recycled material keeps plastics out of landfills and our environment, reduces demand for fossil resources, like oil and gas, and lowers greenhouse gas emissions.
Agilyx ASA (OSE: AGLX; OTCQX: AGXXF) (“Agilyx” or “the company”), a technology company that enables customers to recycle the most challenging post-use plastics to high value, virgin-equivalent products, is proud to announce that its depolymerization technology was successfully demonstrated during commissioning of Toyo Styrene’s 10 ton-per-day chemical recycling facility in Japan.
The recycling plant will convert post-use polystyrene into a styrene monomer enabled by Agilyx depolymerization technology. The styrene monomer will then be converted back into high value polystyrene products which bear a significantly lower carbon footprint than similar products made with virgin monomer.
Construction of the facility was completed in March 2024, at which time the commissioning process began. Last week, polystyrene was successfully depolymerized and converted to on-specification product during commissioning. The Toyo Styrene plant showcases the latest generation of Agilyx’s technology.
“The successful production of on-spec product during the commissioning process at Toyo’s facility is an exciting milestone,” stated Russ Main, interim CEO for Agilyx. “This achievement demonstrates the efficacy of Agilyx’s technology and brings us one step closer to project completion on the first polystyrene chemical recycling facility in Japan.”
Agilyx and Toyo will continue to partner and optimize the facility over the next few months.

OSLO, Norway – February 29, 2024 – Agilyx ASA (OSE: AGLX; OTCQX: AGXXF) (“Agilyx” or “the company”), a technology company that enables customers to recycle the most challenging post-use plastics to high value, virgin-equivalent products, announced today that it has reached an agreement with Americas Styrenics (AmSty), its joint venture partner, to close Regenyx after successfully achieving the objectives defined in its five year formation agreement.
Regenyx, located in Tigard, Oregon (US), is a 50/50 joint venture between AmSty and Agilyx. The company converts post-use polystyrene back into its original components for production under AmSty’s PolyRenew® label. Regenyx showcases Agilyx depolymerization technology and enables AmSty to produce new polystyrene that is used to make products with the same quality and durability as virgin plastic. Over the course of the five-year project, Regenyx diverted over 6 million pounds of post-use polystyrene waste from landfills.
“Because of Regenyx, the new circular plastics economy now has a place for polystyrene, and this essential material that improves people’s lives has even more potential for growth,” said Tim Barnette, AmSty vice president of polymers and sustainability. “AmSty is proud to have been part of this long-term project that proves advanced recycling of polystyrene is not only feasible, it is the future.”
“We are very proud of our team and our company for the important work we’ve done over the past five years in Tigard,” said Russ Main, interim CEO of Agilyx. “Building this first-of-its-kind circular recycling model for polystyrene in the US opened the door for Agilyx to progress additional commercial projects, such as the Toyo Styrene plant in Japan which is nearing completion of commissioning and will showcase the latest generation of Agilyx technology.”
The Regenyx venture achieved many milestones including establishment of ISCC PLUS certification for the demonstrated circular pathway. The venture also allowed both parent companies to develop and progress additional projects and pathways at larger scale. Having successfully delivered its defined project objectives, Agilyx and AmSty will decommission the Regenyx venture at the end of the five-year agreement. The plant will cease operations by April 30, 2024, alongside the wind down of the venture.
