Tau Innovative Solutions (Re-Compo)

Advanced Materials & Chemicals
Waste Beneficiation

Tau Innovative Solutions (Re-Compo) recycles composite packaging into building materials. In Kazakhstan and around the world, there are some types of waste that cannot be recycled or are poorly recycled for a number of reasons. One of them is composite packaging for juices, dairy products, and disposable cups, also known as Tetra Pak. Other wastes include glass, industrial hemp and rice husks, which are also difficult to recycle.

Their technology allows them to recycle such waste and produce environmentally friendly building panels from it. Their solution is an alternative to standard OSB, MDF panels, etc. Building panels made from recycled composite packaging, glass, industrial hemp and/or rice husk are environmentally friendly and do not contain any chemicals or glue inside. They are better and more efficient in terms of technical parameters than standard analogues.

ReCompo panels are a sustainable and innovative solution for the construction industry. They can help to reduce waste, improve environmental performance, and save money.
