LOOP Industries

Like all classic innovation technology start-ups, Loop Industries started in a garage. Our founder, Daniel Solomita, was working on a landfill restitution project in South Carolina, extracting 40,000 tons of waste plastic. While taking steps to re-sell the extracted plastic, he met a chemist in Quebec who was in the early stages of developing a breakthrough technology to upcycle waste plastic into PET. For two years, they worked out of Daniel's garage, perfecting the technology and developing its commercial potential. The result was the launch of Loop Industries.
