Agilyx AS (AGLX) - Agilyx and Toyo Styrene Progress Development of Advanced Recycling Facility - Nearing Completion of Development Phase
OSLO, Norway, January 25, 2021 ─ Agilyx Corporation (AGLX), a wholly owned subsidiary of Agilyx AS (Euronext Growth (Oslo): “AGLX”) and a leader in advanced recycling, and Toyo Styrene Co., LTD ("Toyo Styrene"), an affiliate of Denka Company Limited announced today further progress towards the development of an advanced recycling facility in Chiba, Japan. Agilyx and Toyo Styrene have now reached 60% completion of design development (FEL3). This follows the announcement on December 1, 2020 of 30% completion of the final phase of the Front-End Loading (“FEL”) design development (FEL3). Design development is the final stage in pre-project planning, which precedes construction.
The planned facility will deploy Agilyx advanced recycling technology to recycle post-use polystyrene plastic back into its original building block, styrene monomer. The facility will process up to 10 tons per day of post-industrial and post-consumer polystyrene. The project is on target to meet its goal of commencing operations in early 2022.
