In response to the global increase in plastic production and its low recycling rate, Veolia is committed and innovative. Our expertise enable us to process various types of resins, providing a sustainable alternative to virgin material. Thanks to our complete recycling process, from collection to the creation of ready-to-use polymers, we value plastic waste. Our **PlastiLoop** brand supports industries in their ecological transformation, thus helping **to preserve resources** and **reduce the environmental impact of plastics.**

Veolia offers an innovative bioconversion solution using insects to valorize by-products from agricultural and agri-food industries. By breeding black soldier fly larvae, we provide a dual solution: **recycling food waste while producing a new source of proteins and nutrients for animal feed.** This "**zero waste**" approach generates protein-rich ingredients, virgin oil, and fertilizing frass, thereby helping to reduce the environmental impact of agriculture and preserve natural resources..

Veolia is committed to the full recovery of biomass, **from collection to transformation into energy or material.** Our expertise covers all types of biomass. We offer innovative solutions to produce renewable energy, as well as to recycle dry biomass, by reintroducing wood waste into the wood and paper industry. Thus, we contribute to the energy transition and the preservation of resources.
