India's First Commercial-Scale Chemical rPET Platform
Closing the loop on plastic.
rEOVA produces India's first FSSAI-certified food-grade rPET polymer chips through advanced chemical recycling — converting post-consumer PET waste back to virgin-quality polymer at molecular precision. Not washing. Not remoulding. Complete molecular transformation.

Our Mission
Molecular precision. Circular outcome.
India generates 9–10 lakh metric tonnes of post-consumer PET plastic waste every year. Virtually none of it is food-safe. rEOVA changes this — by depolymerizing PET completely to its constituent monomer and repolymerizing it to virgin-equivalent food-grade polymer chips. This is not mechanical washing. This is chemistry.
We are not a recycler in the conventional sense. We are a
The Technology
Advanced Microwave Alcoholysis
Conventional glycolysis takes 4–6 hours and fails food-grade purity standards. Our microwave-assisted depolymerization completes in 60 seconds at 40% lower energy consumption — destroying every contaminant at the molecular bond level. No thermal degradation. No residual colour carry-over. No compromise.
Input: Post-Consumer rPET Flakes
≤500ppm incoming specification. CPCB-registered source facilities only. Full QC conducted on every batch — NIR spectroscopy, IV measurement, and contamination profiling before any material enters the reactor.
Depolymerize: Microwave Glycolysis Reactor
60-second cycle time at controlled microwave energy. Achieves >99.5% BHET monomer purity. All organic contaminants, colourants, and polymeric impurities are chemically annihilated — not filtered, destroyed.
Purify: Multi-Stage Purification
Hot melt filtration removes particulates. Activated carbon bed adsorbs residual organics. Secondary polishing filter achieves sub-2ppm output. 95% glycol recovery and recycle — closed loop, zero waste stream from the process side.
Blend: 30% rBHET Integration
Purified rBHET monomer blended at molecular level with virgin BHET — before polymerization, not after. The recycled content is structurally indistinguishable from virgin. This is where food-grade certification is earned.
Repolymerize: 4-Reactor Continuous Polymerization
Four-reactor continuous polymerization train. IV maintained at 0.80±0.02 dl/g with inline viscometer control. 250 TPD output capacity. Consistent molecular weight distribution — batch-to-batch, day-to-day.
Output: FSSAI Food-Grade rPET Chips
Contamination <2ppm. Acetaldehyde <1ppm. Colour b* <3.0 (water white). IV 0.80±0.02 dl/g. Functionally equivalent to virgin PET in every measurable parameter. FSSAI FCM-rPET authorisation compliant.
Why Chemical Recycling
The only route to food-grade.
FSSAI explicitly prohibits conventional mechanical recycling for food-contact applications. Chemical recycling is the sole compliant pathway — and rEOVA is the only Indian company operating at this specification, at commercial scale, today.
rEOVA's chemical recycling process delivers contamination levels 100× lower than mechanical alternatives — the only technology pathway that meets FSSAI food-contact material authorisation requirements.
The Mandate
A legally enforced demand gap.
India's EPR framework mandates rising recycled content in rigid PET food packaging. India currently meets barely 15% of mandated demand — creating a structural supply crisis that only FSSAI-authorised food-grade rPET can resolve. rEOVA is purpose-built for this moment.
30% — FY 2025–26 · ACTIVE NOW
Recycled content mandatory in rigid PET food packaging. Supply gap: 4.67 Lakh MT. rEOVA's 330 MT/day output addresses this from Day 1.
40% — FY 2026–27
Mandatory recycled content rises across all food brands. Supply gap escalates to 6.20 Lakh MT. Chemical rPET is the only qualifying material.
50% — FY 2027–28
Half of all food PET must carry certified recycled content. Supply gap reaches 7.80 Lakh MT. Demand far outstrips any mechanical recycler's ability to comply.
60% — FY 2028–29
Only FSSAI-authorised chemical rPET qualifies. Supply gap projected at 8.80 Lakh MT. The window for compliant supply is narrow. rEOVA is already positioned.

Environmental Impact
Carbon-positive. By design.
Birch wood bio-briquettes replace coal in our boiler. Captive solar covers 66% of daytime power. Chemical recycling avoids 2.4 tCO₂e per tonne of rPET produced. Sustainability is not a claim at rEOVA — it is an engineered outcome, quantified and third-party verifiable.
1.14L MT
Plastic Diverted / Year
Every tonne of rPET chips diverts 1.05 tonnes of post-consumer PET from landfill or incineration annually. At 330 MT/day, rEOVA removes meaningful volumes from the waste stream.
2.52L tCO₂e
Avoided Per Year
From rPET circular economy (1.88L), coal-to-birch biomass switch (57,500 tCO₂e), and captive solar generation (4,100 tCO₂e). Every product unit carries a certified carbon benefit.
3 MW
Captive Solar Plant
50 lakh kWh/year generated on-site. Rs. 3.6 Crore/year energy cost saving. 40% accelerated depreciation on renewable asset. 66% of daytime load offset by solar generation.
Rs. 25+ Cr
Annual Carbon Credits
Under India's CCTS framework and Verra VCS. Fuel-switching from coal to birch biomass alone generates 57,500 tCO₂e per year — fully tradeable on compliant carbon markets.
Zero
