The new AMP Recycling plant of 22,000m2 on a total surface area of 43,000m2, inaugurated in 2006, has allowed the rationalization of all production operations, integrating the extrusion lines with a large plastic recycling plant dedicated to recovering post-consumer PET bottles.

In 2012 I.L.P.A. S.p.A. acquired the company.

With this acquisition, ILPA became the first European group of companies to vertically integrate the r-PET supply chain, from post-consumer bottles and trays to new packaging solutions for food or other finished products, directly ensuring the origin and traceability of the material.

Since then, more than €35 million has been invested to:

• Ramp up production and recycling capacity with the installation of another state-of-the-art recycling line
• Increase the plant’s overall efficiency and sustainability with a new water treatment system
• Produce food-grade r-PET flakes and reels thanks to the installation of a decontamination system that has received a positive scientific opinion from EFSA
• Produce food-grade r-PET pellets thanks to the installation of a decontamination system with LSP technology for bottle-to-bottle and tray-to-tray applications.
