Message from the President

  Japan Plastic Energy (JPE) is a designated PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) resin recycle company and processes the disposed plastic materials as the main business. JPE has for a long period of time endeavored to the research and development in cooperation with the industry and universities.

  The Japanese industry had more than 14,700,000 ton of plastic waste in 2007 according to the statistics. Disposed plastic materials are treated as the garbage creating public pollution. The Recycling Act was officially passed and came into effect already. However, what is the real recycling? Current recycling only produces air pollution from plastic garbage.

  Japan needs energy resources (coal & petroleum) and securing them is our national security issue. After years of our research efforts focusing on ‘pollution free' recycling, JPE now has the perfect solution to these problems. JPE completed the Eco-plant with thermal melting solidification technology (patented for 6 and applied for 8 intellectual properties). The plant produces alternative to fossil energy. 

  Recycling system of our eco-plant has dual function of processing ‘plastic waste' and producing ‘alternative energy'. Once this system becomes the industry standard, we can contribute to a significant reduction of CO₂ fighting global warming and enabling coexistence with fossil fuel.

  Our target is ‘pollution free' recycling. In future, we would like to further contribute to the global environment by expanding our business not only in Japan but also in overseas markets.

  Our production takes plastic waste as new energy source and produced material is alternative energy to natural resources. They can also be used for construction materials. We continue to endeavor our contribution for recycling society further improving our technology to become a true environmental company.
