Plastic Waste Recycling & Management Company:
Here at QM Recycled Energy (QMRE) our goal is to create a solution for plastic waste that turns it into oil and then renewable plastic.
QMRE has an effective, efficient solution using pyrolysis – a tried and tested, but little utilised, technology that will help reduce the effects of plastic waste pollution at the same time as providing lucrative investment and new business opportunities.
QMRE is rolling out a network of plastic waste-2-oil then back to new and renewable plastic systems throughout the UK and Republic of Ireland (ROI).
