Recycling of polyurethane waste
We want to help solve problems involving discarded and end-of-life polyurethane products by transforming them into new foam types
We’re leading the way towards a circular economy – mechanical recycling
In 2021, we reached the first milestone when we produced the first granular foam comprising 100% discarded polyurethane mattresses. Hear more about this initiative in the video.

We are already leading the way in mechanical recycling of post-industrial polyurethane. Since the 1980s, we have granulated waste from our soft foam production and transformed this into a multi-purpose granular foam, which is our Setex® brand. We want to expand our production of recycled foam types, focusing on the products which end consumers have discarded, including mattresses. Instead of mattresses ending up in a landfill or incineration, we want to create a circular economy where we join forces with strong partners to collect old and end-of-life mattresses, clean and disinfect them, test them and then granulate polyurethane and recycle as new solutions.
