Profitable growth

Profitable growth through organic initiatives and M&A opportunities, strengthening recycling operations, enabling geographic expansion and further strengthening of market positions

Our strategic sustainability approach

Based on three pillars

Becoming circular To be a circular business built on renewable energy

Actively engage in partnerships Being an active and responsible partner so that we together with our stakeholders can achieve a circular economy, operating within our planet's planetary boundaries

Contribute to an inclusive society Create a positive social impact for everyone across the BEWI value chain.

The global circularity gap is growing

Only 8.6% of the global economy is circular1

  • A massive circularity gap needs to be closed
  • Circular economy holds the promise for systemic transformation of our society
  • Closing the circularity gap is needed to reach the Paris agreement target

BEWI is an industry leading recycler

Ambitious commitment to recycling

2018 – BEWI Circular established ~EUR 10 million invested since establishment

2020 – Expansion and ramp-up

Recycling acquisition in the Netherlands Establishment of recycling company in Portugal and Circular Denmark

Key future Circular targets

2019 – Acquisitions and launches Acquisitions in Denmark and Belgium Launch of the world's first 100% recycled EPS and the Use-ReUse programme

2021 – Commercialization Current recycling capacity of ~20kt 8 own recycling facilities, 1 jointly owned Recycling consolidation part of key growth strategy

Becoming circular

By 2030, our ambition is to be a circular business built on renewable energy.

To achieve our goals, we must succeed with three processes:

Lean – Increased efficiency throughout our value chain

Making more of less using renewable energy

Energy efficiency and transition to non-fossil energy sources

Material reduction and increased recycled content

Transition to non-fossil transportation

Keep - Increasing the lifetime of our products

Long-lasting products and reuse of raw materials

New business models

  • Delivering rental solutions to secure circularity
  • Increasing reuse and establishing closed loops

100% recyclable Reuse products

  • Eliminating non-recyclable contents from production
  • Improving designs to enable circularity

• Reshaping used materials to fit new designs eliminating waste and new raw materials

Close – Enabling efficient recycling processes

Developing solutions and designs that ensure products are recycled

  • Investments in collection hubs to secure efficient collection of used EPS
  • Cooperation with customers and municipalities to secure sorting and collection
  • Investments in green fields and actively looking for M&A opportunities

Mechanical recycling

  • Green Line 100% recycled EPS
  • Increasing our extruder capacity enabling additional ~30kt production capacity in Etten-Leur in the Netherlands

Collection Dissolution and chemical recycling

  • To ensure circularity of used materials dissolution and chemical recycling is needed for some fractions
  • Positioning to improve dissolution and chemical recycling processes through collaboration initiatives

Circular development supported by regulators

EU directives regulating the use of plastics in different applications

  • CONSTRUCTION Energy Performance and Buildings • Member states required to implement renovation strategies, and roadmaps for transformation of building stock to near net-zero, with mid-term goals for 2030 and 2040
    • Aims at reduction of waste arising from end-of-life vehicles, by achieving reuse, recycling and recovery performance targets and preventing use of heavy metals
  • Single-Use Packaging directive & Packaging and waste Directive • Ban on specific B2B single-use food packaging1 , and all member states for end producer responsibility schemes, with a target of recycling of plastic packaging of 55% by 2030
