Cologne, October 16, 2025. As a follow up of the announcements made in July this summer, the GreenDot group confirms a strategic restructuring of its holdings, accompanied by targeted capital injections to support further growth. These measures reflect the company’s strong commitment to advancing the dynamic development of the circular economy in Europe and open up new opportunities within a rapidly evolving market landscape.

 

With the recently announced partnership between Agilyx ASA (A2QD56) and GreenDot to develop recycling of plastic packaging waste, GreenDot is sending a clear signal of innovation and strategic foresight. 

 

“Our balanced positioning along the entire value chain gives us a diversified portfolio that enables us to invest strategically in the most promising segments of the sector even in difficult times,” explains Laurent Auguste, CEO of GreenDot. “We firmly believe that the circular economy for plastics is a key pillar for Europe’s strategic independence and we keep on growing the production capacities and assembling in a smart way key components of the value chain to contribute to make it a reality at scale.”

About the GreenDot group:
The GreenDot group is dedicated to address the plastic waste crisis by developing solutions and assets which close the circularity loop of plastics through the production of high-quality recyclates, including from difficult to recycle waste streams. The group’s portfolio spans both mechanical and chemical recycling, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) licensing services as well as consulting on EPR systems and design-for-recycling.

 

The foundation of the group was laid more than 30 years ago in Germany with Der Grüne Punkt which created the world’s first nationwide EPR program for household packaging, including hard to recycle plastics like flexible films. Since then the group constantly expanded its business areas in order to serve all requirements of the circular economy for plastics. To date the group has presences in Germany, Austria as well as Italy, and continues to widen its global network.
