Who We Are
From Waste Stream
To Engineered Resin.
To Engineered Resin.
At PRI, recycling is not a single operation — it is a controlled industrial system. Our vertical integration transforms heterogeneous waste streams into predictable, traceable compounds that meet demanding performance and supply requirements.
01
Feedstock Intelligence
Intelligent Feedstock Management
Post-consumer and post-industrial streams arrive either unprepared or pre-processed. PRI performs lot identification, segregation, conformity assessment, and traceability tracking from day one. Feedstock variability is managed at entry — not at the customer's molding machine.
02
Preparation
Preparation as Value Creation
Size reduction, washing, density separation, contaminant removal, and optical and triboelectric sorting eliminate unpredictability — dirt, contaminated polymers, metals, inks, and instability. Output: clean, homogeneous material with stable feeding behavior and predictable compounding inputs.
03
Compounding
Compounding as Risk Transfer
Multiple recycled streams, additives, fillers, and colors combined under controlled dosing. Vacuum degassing for volatile removal. Variability management shifts upstream — away from the customer's process. The customer receives pellets with defined behavior, consistent specification windows, and lower qualification effort.
PRI does not sell recycled pellets "as-is." We deliver engineered material solutions where variability is absorbed by the process — not pushed downstream to our customers.
Our Core Promise
We manage
the variability.
You get the
performance.
the variability.
You get the
performance.
Upstream, the material we receive is inherently variable — that is the nature of recycled streams. PRI absorbs this complexity within our processes. Downstream, you receive stable, in-spec compounded material — every shipment, every time.
↑ Upstream — PRI Absorbs
Variable, inconsistent recycled feedstocks arrive. PRI performs lot identification, sorting, washing, density separation, optical sorting, formulation, compounding, vacuum degassing, and in-line QC. All variability managed here.
↓
↓ Downstream — You Receive
Stable, consistent, compounded pellets. Defined MFR, mechanical properties, and lot-to-lot repeatability. Run on your existing equipment without process adjustments.
Vertically Integrated
From feedstock to finished compound.
Every stage under one roof. Variability absorbed upstream. In-spec engineered performance delivered downstream.

Engineered to Your Spec
We Don't Sell a Catalog.
We Engineer Your Compound.
We Engineer Your Compound.
Our library spans four polymer families — but the grade you need may not be on a shelf yet. PRI formulates recycled compounds to your exact specification: melt flow, impact, stiffness, color, filler, and regulatory requirements. Tell us your target spec, and we engineer a drop-in replacement for virgin resin to match it.
