1980s

CLEAN TECH, INC. BEGAN

In 1988, Clean Tech, Inc. was founded to address the growing need for plastic recycling, focusing on two of the most commonly used packaging materials: high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

At a time when recycling was not yet mainstream, we took the initiative to develop innovative processes that would keep plastic bottles in the loop—preventing them from being discarded, and instead, reintroducing them into the cycle as valuable materials.

By 1989, Clean Tech had officially launched its manufacturing operations, introducing primary processing methods such as sorting and grinding HDPE and PET. Additionally, we installed an advanced HDPE recycling system designed to efficiently wash and pelletize the material.
