A new level in plastics recycling

From the plastic mixture
to high-quality crude oil

Using its highly innovative facilities, Tubis recycles mixed plastic waste and residual materials that would otherwise end up in landfills or be incinerated. Through a controllable production process on an industrial scale, the company produces, among other things, ultra-fine crude oil, the quality of which can be tailored to the specific requirements of its customers.

Maximum flexibility thanks to controllable processes

Variable raw materials,
Individual end products

Where others require uniform input materials for a certain output quality, Tubis can process all types of mixed plastics that could otherwise no longer be fed into the recycling loop. The Tubis crude oil produced in this way using a high-tech process is characterized by its purity and high, customer-specific quality. It is used by customers to manufacture a wide variety of products.

100% sustainability, 100% trust

A solution that benefits everyone

Disposer

Operator

Refineries

As a certified waste disposal company, you have to comply with ever stricter requirements for the proper disposal of waste. The legal requirements are increasing and CO2 certificates are increasingly being demanded. We take your previously non-recyclable, mixed plastics off your hands and return them to the raw material cycle. This means less incineration waste, lower CO2 emissions and greater sustainability.
We are your reliable development partner when it comes to planning and building a new Tubis system. As the operator, you need 100% confidence in the plant and in the know-how of the project team. With proven engineering skills and patented technology, we create a plant for you that allows you to economically introduce previously unused resources into the value chain. In this way, you make a real contribution to global environmental protection.

Are you looking for a reliable supplier of 100% sustainably sourced crude oil in the quality you require? Then we are your partner. With 10 years of development expertise, our plants offer stable production processes. With our high-quality raw materials, which can be produced on an industrial scale thanks to their high performance, we can help you increase the use of recyclates in your products before 2030.

Innovative recovery of raw materials

We close the cycle

Until now, mixed plastic waste has mainly ended up in landfill sites or incinerators – a huge burden on the environment. We want to change this and have developed a patented, innovative technology with which we can return previously non-recyclable waste materials to the raw material cycle. Our fully automated high-tech plant uses a special pyrolysis process to convert mixed plastic waste into high-quality gas and crude oil.

We provide our customers with crude oil of any quality as a raw material for a wide range of industrial applications. In this way, we reduce the amount of plastic-based incineration waste, reduce the global CO2 footprint and offer a sustainable solution to the global plastic problem. We reuse the part of the generated gas that cannot be used for end products ourselves, for the continuous heating of our plant.

Continuous. Energy efficient. Economical.

The Tubis process

Variable
Input materials

Mixed plastic waste of all kinds is shredded and continuously fed into the Tubis plant at high capacity.
01
ï„‘

Heating

The input material is melted down and heated to up to 570°C until the long hydrocarbon chains break up and an oil gas is produced.

02
ï„‘

Cooling &
Refinement

The resulting oil-gas-steam mixture is cooled, separated into low-sulphur, chlorine-free oil and gas and refined through several filtration steps.

03
ï„‘

customized
Output materials

The crude oil produced is discharged in any specification and quality and serves as the starting material for new plastics. The resulting gas is recycled and used to heat the plant.

In-house expertise
and development

Development

The most important resource in our company is the expertise of our development department. Tubis develops, plans and implements with its own development company. This enables us to adapt and expand our innovative systems to individual requirements at any time.

Operation

Thanks to our experience in plant construction, rapid growth is the core competence of Tubis. We are currently established on the market with 4 of our own operating companies. By 2029, Tubis will be represented with more than 8 operating sites in Germany. In this way, we enable short distances for disposal companies and crude oil customers.
