Chromed Plastic? NO PROBLEM

Goodbye waste, welcome innovation!

Laprima Plastics revolutionises the recycling of chrome materials with a sustainable proprietary technology for recovering post-industrial waste

Who would have thought that chrome plating could also become… sustainable?

In our plant, we breathe the air of the future: thanks to a proprietary laprima plastics technology, we are able to recycle chromium-plated plastic materials from post-industrial waste, particularly from the automotive sector, in a totally non-polluting way.

This is a mechanical process designed to efficiently and safely separate the plastic component from the metal component (chrome plating), making both materials reusable as secondary raw materials.

No toxic fumes, no environmental impact. Just an intelligent solution to separate metal from plastic mechanically, returning both components to the production chain.

The key points of the technology:

Zero harmful emissions: the process neither uses hazardous substances nor releases pollutants into the environment.

Complete recovery: both plastic and metal fractions are recovered with high quality standards.

🔧 Applicable on a large scale: optimised for processing large-volume components and different formats.

🌍 Contribution to the circular economy: reduces the need for virgin raw materials, extending the life cycle of materials.

🌱 Preserved natural resources

🚗 Industrial waste transformed into value.

A new standard for the recycling industry

This new system makes it possible to tackle one of the most complex challenges in the field of polymer recovery: the treatment of plastic components with metal coatings, which until now have been difficult to handle with traditional technologies.

Thanks to our solution, waste that was once considered unrecyclable waste becomes a resource, with a positive environmental and economic impact.

A real breakthrough, especially in a sector – the automotive industry – where tonnes of chromium-plated components risk ending up in landfills every year. With our process, however, this waste is transformed into new opportunities for the industry, in line with our mission: to give new life to plastic, without compromising the planet.

At a time when sustainability is no longer an option but a responsibility, we have chosen not to stand idly by. And we continue, with enthusiasm, to believe in ecologically sustainable innovation.

With this innovation, laprima plastics confirms itself as a benchmark in the field of advanced recycling, actively contributing to the ecological transition of industry and the protection of the planet’s resources.
