Who we are<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

PETER is an innovative chemical recycling process for polyester, capable of transforming mixed textile waste and hard-to-recycle packaging into high-quality PET. This proprietary technology overcomes the limitations of traditional recycling, making a tangible contribution to waste reduction and the transition to a circular economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PETER was developed and is promoted by While True, a cleantech startup founded in 2021 with the mission to innovate the recycling sector and accelerate environmental sustainability. In addition to developing PETER, While True operates as an R&D center and technology provider, offering tailored solutions for the recycling and plastics industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to strong industrial and academic partnerships, we bring sustainable and scalable solutions to market, developed through a truly ESG-driven approach and designed for large-scale adoption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
