Funding Boost Accelerates Uplift360’s Chemical Recycling Expansion
Uplift360, based in Luxembourg, raised over $1 million to advance its chemical recycling technology for high-performance materials. The company, founded in 2021, focuses on recycling niche materials like Kevlar, used in body armor, and Twaron, common in cables and transport applications. With this funding, Uplift360 plans to scale its low-temperature recycling process and build a unique concept demonstrator. Investors in this round include Promus Ventures (Chicago) and Twin Track (London). Jeremy Teboul and Estelle Godard also joined the board of directors.
Strategic Recycling Partnerships Support Sustainability Goals
Uplift360’s proprietary technology recovers valuable materials from complex products, including wind turbines and aircraft components. These products often contain advanced composites, which are typically difficult to recycle. However, by supporting the circular economy, Uplift360 helps industries not only cut waste but also reduce their environmental impact. At the same time, the company ensures continued access to critical materials, which is essential for sustainable production.
To grow its recycling footprint, Uplift360 is partnering with global producers like DuPont and Teijin. Together, they aim to improve recycling systems and build onsite facilities. These setups help manufacturers cut disposal costs and reuse materials more sustainably.
Uplift360’s move into defense and aerospace recycling supports a broader push for supply chain sustainability. By recovering rare and critical materials, the company meets rising demand tied to energy transition and circular resource use.
