Our Vision

Established in 2020, Freepoint Eco-Systems' mission is to help address the global plastic waste crisis. By upcycling waste plastic back to into a hydrocarbon liquid similar to crude oil, we aim to create a more sustainable supply chain that reduces reliance on crude oil and generates positive economic value for waste plastic while reducing the environmental impact of current plastic production and disposal methods.

Freepoint Eco-Systems is committed to developing additional pathways for plastic waste disposal.

Over 90% of all plastic waste produced is not recycled, due in part to the fact that current mechanical recycling technologies can only process 20-30% of the types of plastics produced. Through our pyrolysis process, we can upcycle over 80% of the types of plastics produced, complementing mechanical recyclers and greatly expanding the types of plastic that are recyclable. Our process produces a hydrocarbon liquid called “pyrolysis oil” or “PyOil,” which serves as a substitute feedstock for crude oil that is used to create many products, including food and medical grade applications.

Understanding the Problem

We recognize the limitations associated with the traditional plastics lifecycle and are creating improvements to maximize plastic waste recovery and reuse.

0 +

million tons of plastic are produced each year

$ 0

billion is spent disposing of plastic via landfills annually in the U.S. alone.

< 0 %

of annual plastic production is recycled

0 +

years is the time it takes for plastic to biodegrade
