Carbios has signed a multi-year supply agreement with Indorama Ventures. The French biotech company will supply biorecycled monomers from its future plant in Longlaville. Indorama processes these into r-PET filaments, which Michelin uses to reinforce its tires.
🔹 Strategic move: Entering the market for industrial textile reinforcements
🔹 Technology: High-quality enzymatic recycling of complex PET
🔹 Partner: Indorama Ventures as global polyester leader; Michelin as end user
Carbios thus opens up a new industrial sales channel and strengthens its goal of high-quality recycling of PET waste.
