Closing the loop on farm waste with high-quality end products

Recycling

AUTHOR : Marcel ALBERTS,CEO, Healix

Manufacturing twines from used products in close loops is possible. But that’s not all! This is what Healix shows by opening possibilities to recycle waste from fishing and agricultural sectors into a variety of applications with high quality requirements.

What was the main reason behind your decision to set up the Healix recycling project?

Marcel Alberts : During my experience in the fibre industry, I became increasingly aware of the scale of the problem—particularly the massive amount of plastic waste (discarded ropes, nets, and twines from the fishing and agriculture sectors). Seeing images of marine life entangled in ghost nets was a clear reminder of the damage we were causing. I realized it was time to give something back to the world, and Healix was born from that vision—to transform this waste into a valuable resource and help reduce the reliance on virgin plastics and reduce our CO2 footprint.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.
