Cyclyx announces partnership with TenCate Grass
Cyclyx International, a consortium-based post-use plastic innovation company, announced its new partnership with TenCate Grass, a global group of companies that create sustainable solutions for synthetic turf.
“Joining Cyclyx is just another step in our commitment to continuously improve upon our sustainability practices,” Joe Fields, co-CEO of TenCate Grass Americas, said. “Circular solutions are vital to the turf industry, and advancements in feedstock management through organizations like Cyclyx are rapidly becoming more important as we continue to find ways to replicate our end-of-life turf recycling success globally.”
TenCate Grass recycles its end-of-life turf into Ecocept, a recycled elastic layer in sport fields design. In 2019, TenCate Grass co-founded GBN Artificial Grass Recycling to recycle end-of-life turf in the Netherlands in a circular manner, a concept which it aims to replicate worldwide.
“We’re excited to welcome TenCate Grass to Cyclyx,” Joe Vaillancourt, CEO of Cyclyx, said. “Their focus on designing for recyclability and ultimately achieving circular pathways for their end-of-life products shows a deep commitment to sustainability. We look forward to working together toward our mission to help increase the recyclability of plastic from 10 percent to 90 percent.”
