We made progress in our commitment to innovation and technology, developing together with Recreus, one of the startups in which our investment fund Repsol Corporate Venturing has a stake, a polypropylene compound with fiberglass additives. A product specially designed to be used in 3D printing that offers better processability, as well as much higher mechanical performance than polypropylene, and an improved surface finish with a soft touch.

We are progressing toward our goal of promoting the use of circular materials by starting up a new production line for polyolefins with mechanically recycled plastic content at our Puertollano Industrial Complex.

We attended the Blow Molding 2022 congress, where this polyolefin application's entire supply chain has participated. We presented our sustainable Repsol Reciclex® range and our vision of the circular economy for this market at the congress.

We jointly presented our latest projects with clients such as Grupo Armando Álvarez, Lactalis Nestlé, Plastigaur, SP Group, or Berry Superfos at the K 2022 trade fair, innovative solutions that contribute to circularity to respond to society's needs in terms of sustainability and emissions reduction.

We acquired a 27% stake in Acteco, the comprehensive waste management, and recovery company, with whom we have collaborated since 2018. With this acquisition, we become a reference shareholder in the Spanish company, ensuring our access to plastic waste to promote the circular economy of our RepsolReciclex® range.

We attended the IZB International Suppliers Fair, held from October 11 to 13 in Wolfsburg, Germany. The IZB is one of the most important fairs in the world for automotive industry suppliers.

We have selected Quimidroga Maroc for the country’s exclusive distribution of our polypropylene (PP) compounds range.

We have met face to face for the first time in two years with our customers to showcase our latest developments at FEICA 2022, the main European trade fair for adhesives and sealants, held from September 14 to 16 in Hamburg, Germany.

The yogurt and dairy dessert company Lactalis Nestlé has become a pioneer in incorporating recycled plastic from our Repsol Reciclex® range to manufacture its chilled dairy product bottles, thus taking another step in the transition towards the circular economy.
