License BOSS Technology

From plant design to commercial operation — a proven recycling solution.

We license our patented BOSS technology, delivering the complete solution from plant design, engineering, procurement and construction through to commissioning, operator training, operational know-how and offtake sales development. Demonstrated through our partnership with Syklo in Finland, where a 50,000 tonne per year facility processing household mixed rigid and flexible plastics commenced operations in July 2026.

Who this is for

Plastic processors and MRF operators who need a proven separation route for feedstock their current plant cannot monetise

Processors deploy proven BOSS technology under licence at their own site. You retain operational control; Impact provides the technology, evidence pathways and ongoing support — so you add a commercially viable separation route without a greenfield build or years of in-house development.

  • Add separation capability your current plant doesn't have — without a greenfield build or in-house technology development
  • Retain operational control of your site; Impact provides the technology, evidence pathways and ongoing support
  • Modular deployment alongside existing plant infrastructure, scoped to your feedstock, throughput and integration constraints
  • Proven at Impact's Durham reference facility and in active international licensing with Syklo (Finland) and Bek & Verburg (Netherlands)

Your journey

How license boss technology works with Impact.

A tailored pathway from first conversation to commercial outcome.

  1. Step 01

    Initial scoping conversation

    Discuss feedstock profile, target polymers, throughput requirements and the commercial outcomes you need from separation. Impact will indicate early whether BOSS is likely to fit your stream — saving time before either side commits resource.

  2. Step 02

    Site evaluation

    Impact assesses site footprint, material flow, integration points and infrastructure against BOSS deployment requirements. A visit to a licensed reference site can be arranged for processors at a serious evaluation stage.

  3. Step 03

    Licence and integration planning

    Commercial terms, technical due diligence and integration planning are agreed before deployment commitments are made — so you understand the full commercial model, ongoing obligations and evidence routes before you commit.

  4. Step 04

    Deployment and ongoing support

    BOSS is deployed under licence with Impact providing technology transfer, operational commissioning support and evidence routes for downstream output claims — so your team is not left to figure it out alone after handover.

FAQ

License BOSS Technology - questions.

This route suits plastic processors, MRF operators and industrial sites that want to deploy BOSS separation technology at their own facility under licence — particularly those with feedstock they cannot monetise through conventional sorting alone.

Impact Recycling offers three commercial routes — each suited to a different relationship with waste plastic.

Our Recycling Plants

A wave of new regulation is creating growing pressure to find a credible, auditable UK-based recycling route for mixed post-consumer plastic streams. This includes Simpler Recycling (UK, 2027), the Plastic Packaging Tax, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) reforms, the EU's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), and new EU export restrictions on waste plastic to non-OECD countries from late 2026 — which are closing off traditional export routes for UK waste plastic.

Recycled Products

The Plastic Packaging Tax and ESG commitments mean buyers need PCR they can evidence, a certificate with a chain of custody. We provide a load-by-load record built for compliance reporting frameworks — and priced to compete with market alternatives.
