GAW presents the plasticsrecycling technology CreaSolv® at the Zukunftstag 2025

GAW at the "Future Day" of the Economy Region South 2025

On November 11th GAW presented the award-winning plasticsrecycling CreaSolv® technology at the Zukunftstag (“Future Day”) of the Economy Region South in Graz/Austria.

About 1,500 participants gathered for interesting key-notes, panel discussions, business talks and networking. 💬

As the winner of the Innovation Prize Styria 2025 in the category sustainability / middle and large companies, we were invited to present the groundbreaking technology (see details below) in an exhibition area provided by Steirische Wirtschaftsförderung SFG.

Sigrid Tertinegg, Marketing Manager of GAW technologies GmbH, would like to thank the many interested visitors at our stand for the interesting conversations and also the organizers for this great event and opportunity. 👏

GAW – powered by CreaSolv®: ♻️

The CreaSolv® process represents a major advancement in recycling. It allows for the recovery of high-quality recyclates (recycled material) from plastic waste that was previously difficult or impossible to recycle. This includes multilayer packaging commonly used for example in the food industry. These packaging materials are made of different layers that are hard to separate and typically end up being incinerated or landfilled.

CreaSolv® employs a gentle solvent-based process that dissolves complex plastic mixtures into their individual components. This method achieves exceptionally high recovery quality, producing recyclates that can compete with virgin materials. ❗

This innovation marks a significant step toward a genuine circular economy and sets new ecological standards. Compared to energy recovery or other chemical recycling methods, it reduces CO₂ emissions by up to two-thirds. This makes a tangible contribution to global climate goals while increasing recycling rates for problematic plastic waste streams. 🌍
