Agilyx invested \u20ac52m for the 44% stake, comprising \u20ac32m in newly issued shares and \u20ac20m in cash through a mix of primary and secondary share purchases.<\/p>\n

GreenDot CEO Laurent Auguste stated: \u201cThis new capital injection will support our facility expansion in Germany, Austria and Italy, further propelling GreenDot\u2019s commitment to scaling the European circular economy of plastic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe synergies between two market leaders\u00a0that this investment creates strengthen our ability to act as a preferred partner of global brands and actors in the plastic packaging value chain.\u201d<\/p>\n

GreenDot operates across 29 countries and processes more than one million tonnes of packaging waste annually, including 400,000t of plastic.<\/p>\n

The company is described as the largest circular plastic recycling platform in Europe and the third\u2011largest recycling company in Germany.<\/p>\n

It is focusing on expanding its mechanical recycling footprint while advancing contracts to supply feedstock for advanced recycling and maintaining growth in its profitable core business in Germany\u2019s plastic recycling market.<\/p>\n

Agilyx CEO Ranjeet Bhatia commented: \u201cWe are pleased to reach completion on the GreenDot investment.\u00a0 We have a tremendous opportunity to rapidly build the leading pan-European plastic recycling platform and are very much looking forward to working with our new GreenDot colleagues and shareholders to achieve our goals.\u201d<\/p>\n

In September 2025, GreenDot secured a ten\u2011year feedstock supply contract from a third\u2011party advanced recycling facility, covering between 20,000t and 34,000t per annum.<\/p>\n

The company has also agreed to acquire a mechanical recycling facility in Italy that specialises in bottle\u2011to\u2011bottle recycling and production of pipes from recycled material.<\/p>\n
