Developing sustainable and energy-efficient recycling processes for absorbent hygiene products.

Disposable diapers are the third-largest single consumer commodity in landfills.



Our novel technology allows us to break down used diapers into their individual components, including plastic, wood pulp, and superabsorbent polymer. These materials can then be repurposed into new products, reducing waste and preserving valuable resources.


..more of the global population is starting to afford disposable diapers. The diaper market is predicted to exceed $71 billion in 2022.

Every year more than 160 million kilos of used diapers for babies and incontinence material for adults end up in waste in The Netherlands.


Alkyl Recycling is working on a process that substitutes thermal treatment with chemical processing which preserves the structural integrity of polymeric material thereby, reducing the energy cost of heat and converting the waste into reusable raw materials.
