Our technology: Transforming waste, preserving resources.
Technology
MeSentia is developing a patent-pending process and the associated machine technology for producing structured lightweight panels from thermoplastic materials – including recycled, mixed and fibre-containing material streams.
The technology combines material preparation, thermal process control and forming with a modular and scalable machine platform.

Rethinking recycling
Many plastic waste streams are technically or economically difficult to process using existing recycling methods. Mixed, contaminated and fibre-containing materials in particular present major challenges for conventional recycling processes.
MeSentia takes a different approach: rather than necessarily converting the material back into homogeneous plastic granulate, it is used directly as a raw material for new, durable structures and products.
From process validation to industrial application
MeSentia is advancing its technology and machinery step by step through clearly defined technical validation stages.
Development work to date has confirmed the fundamental technical feasibility of the process. The next development stage focuses on validating the critical process steps under increasingly industrially relevant conditions.
The focus is on material preparation, heating, dosing, forming and joining, as well as their interaction within a reproducible overall process.
MEON X – Technology and process validation
MEON X is designed for the systematic validation of key technical functions and process parameters. Its purpose is to reduce technical risks and establish the foundation for the next machine generation.
MEON 1 – Industrial demonstration
MEON 1 transfers the validated process steps into an integrated machine platform. The focus is on industrial operating conditions, repeatability, product quality, throughput, safety and demonstration in real-world applications.
MEON 2 – Industrial scale-up
MEON 2 is intended for the subsequent industrial scale-up. The platform is designed to transfer the results of the demonstration phase into a high-performance machine architecture for commercial deployment.
Patent-pending technology
Key elements of our process for producing structured lightweight panels from thermoplastic materials are patent pending.
