    Apply Carbon announces investments, milestones for carbon fiber and aramid recyclability

    A global company focused on recycled carbon and aramid fibers, Apply Carbon (Plouay, France) — part of natural and technical fiber supplier Procotex Corp. (Mouscron, Belgium) — has concluded various financial investments and announced new milestones in its work to develop a robust, mature supply chain for these materials’ circularity. 

    Apply Carbon’s strength lies in its manufacturing processes, reliable supplier network, comprehensive product range and focus on quality. Following a double-digit million euro investment in 2023 and the establishment of a modern 16,500-square-meter recycling facility, Apply Carbon now produces more than 2,500 metric tons of recycled carbon and aramid fiber per year, with a nameplate capacity exceeding 4,000 metric tons. The company also holds a stock of approximately 3,000 metric tons of raw material to ensure high product quality, uniformity and supply security.

    Recently, Apply Carbon has made two simultaneous achievements. First, targeting a reduced environmental footprint, the company has put a 1 megawatt peak (MWp) solar power plant into operation, shifting one third of its own energy demand to renewable electricity. This, combined with the fact that mainly low-temperature mechanical recycling processes are used, has enabled Apply Carbon to set an industry benchmark in terms of sustainable production, translating into an embedded CO2 footprint of its products that is reported to be 85% lower than that of virgin counterparts.

    Second, to drive product innovation in response to the ever-more demanding needs of its customers, Apply Carbon has inaugurated a new R&D facility located within the premises of its manufacturing site in France. Here, a dedicated team of process experts and product specialists focuses on the
    development of differentiated and affordable next-generation products. Key innovation areas include novel sizing chemistries for enhanced polymer compatibility, new product formats for more convenient dosing and feeding, as well as special fibers and fiber blends with tailored electrical or mechanical properties.

    Recycled and sized carbon and aramid fibers from Apply Carbon offer ease of processing and impart high performance to a wide range of polymers for demanding applications.

    Apply Carbon believes these investments will strengthen its ability to drive the transition toward more sustainable raw composite materials in the compounding industry. Not only will it enable further extension of its already broad portfolio, but will allow for more competitive pricing in order to make recycled carbon and aramid fibers the natural choice for customers in search of sustainable, cost-effective alternatives.

    At JEC World 2025, Apply Carbon is showcasing its portfolio of milled, cut, granulated or pelletized carbon and aramid fibers obtained from reclaimed post-industrial or end-of-life composite waste. In a live presentation at the
    event, the company is also highlighting the performance and cost benefits that emerge from turning waste into high-quality raw materials, discussing the measures taken to ensure a traceability, quality and capacity aligned with market needs. 

    Apply Carbon is exhibiting at Booth R42 in Hall 6 booth R42 and is presenting during the Composites Exchange session in Agora 6 on Thursday, March 6 from 10:00 – 10:25 a.m.
