Integration of Trifluor Kunststoff Acquisition

The company designed the facility to support the integration of Trifluor Kunststoff, acquired in 2018. This German company specializes in reprocessed PFA and FEP materials that match the performance of virgin polymers.

This capability allows FRL to extract more value from contaminated fluoropolymer scrap and strengthen its focus on sustainable recycling solutions.

Strengthening Global Recycling Capabilities

As a division of Prime Materials Recovery, FRL leads the North American fluoropolymer recycling market. The company processes FEP, PFA, and ETFE plastics and supplies customers worldwide.

The new facility positions FRL to meet growing global demand, improve operational efficiency, and deliver consistent, high-quality recycled materials.
