PureCycle Gains FastPass Approval for New Polypropylene Recycling Facility in Thailand PureCycle (Thailand) Company Limited has been admitted to Thailand’s FastPass Investment Acceleration Program by the country’s Board of Investment.
The program covers PureCycle’s planned polypropylene recycling facility in Rayong, Thailand, and is intended to help streamline access to approvals and permitting for starting operations.
FastPass is reserved for large-scale projects in industries that use advanced technology and are expected to generate substantial economic benefits for Thailand.
Admission to the FastPass program indicates government support for PureCycle’s planned Thailand facility, which may help shorten or simplify some of the administrative steps required before operations can begin.
Investors should still pay close attention to project execution milestones, including financing, construction progress and any updates on permitting timelines, since these factors can affect the pace and scale of the company’s growth plans. Announcement • Apr 23

Purecycle Technologies Signs Eur 40 Million Innovation Fund Grant Agreement with European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency PureCycle Technologies, Inc. announced that it has signed a EUR 40 million grant agreement from the Innovation Fund with the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) to fund its ‘ASTRA PP’ project in the NextGen District at the Port of Antwerp-Bruges. CINEA announced that a total of 54 projects selected under the Innovation Fund 2024 Call for Net-Zero Technologies have signed their grant agreements. In total, the projects will receive EUR 2,700 million of funding. As part of Project ‘ASTRA PP,’ PureCycle will install a polypropylene (PP) dissolution recycling facility in the Port of Antwerp-Bruges, in Belgium designed for an annual production capacity of 59,000 tonnes (130 million lbs.) of PureFive resin. The project name, ‘ASTRA PP’, pays homage to PureCycle's facility site in the NextGen District and stands for Advanced Solvent-based Technology for Recycling in Antwerp for Polypropylene. The project will contribute to the decarbonization and circularity objectives of the European Green Deal, the Circular Economy Action Plan and the Clean Industrial Deal by providing circular alternatives to conventional fossil-raw-materials for PP production. When completed, the project will provide PureCycle’s customers with solutions for complying with European Union (EU) regulations, such as the recycled content targets in the Packaging & Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and the End-of-Life Vehicles Regulation (ELVR). The Antwerp facility is expected to create positive impacts at an economy-wide level across sectors by providing circular, made-in-Europe PP products that meet the growing customer demand for more sustainable solutions. The ‘ASTRA PP’ project is expected to reach greenhouse gas emission avoidance of 85% relative to conventional fossil-raw-material-based polypropylene production, according to the specific calculation methodology of the Innovation Fund. In addition to signing this grant agreement, PureCycle remains actively engaged with Flanders regional officials and has applied for Flemish regional support for additional funding for the ‘ASTRA PP’ project. Funded by the European Union.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 34% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 34% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Revenue is less than US$5m (US$1.6m revenue). Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Jun 17

PureCycle Technologies, Inc. Receives Expanded FDA No Objection Letter for PureFive Resin Use in Cosmetics, Personal Care and Food Applications PureCycle Technologies, Inc. announced the receipt of a Letter of No Objection from the United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA) confirming that the Company's PureFive Ultra-Pure Recycled resin is suitable for use in food-contact applications. This LNO expands upon a previous no-objection letter to PureCycle from the FDA, confirming that the Agency considers PureFive Ultra-Pure Recycled resin to be suitably pure for use in contact with all food types under FDA's Conditions of Use A through H. This expansion provides PureCycle with the same Conditions of Use for PureFive recycled resin as virgin polypropylene. The Conditions of Use span from frozen food storage to microwaveable packaging. The FDA's LNO acknowledges that PureCycle may procure a wider range of feedstock for FDA applications, including curbside materials that are sorted for food-grade. Currently, the Company purchases both food-grade and non-food grade feedstocks for the purification operations. The Company previously received an LNO for all food types under Conditions of Use E through G with only food-grade post-consumer recycled feedstock that was collected at stadiums and other point sources. This is the result of months of feed preparation and purification through PureCycle's Feedstock Evaluation Unit, sample-gathering and an extensive component challenge-testing in preparation for the final submission. The Company also previously received an LNO for all food types under Conditions of Use A-H with the use of food-grade post-industrial recycled materials.
