Latest update: detailed design of the RECYCOMP equipment
- TEKNIKER advances with the detailed design of the RECYCOMP equipment after finishing the testing of the relevant technologies at lab. This allowed the definition of the final configuration of the machine and the main aspects of the identification, cutting and manipulation modules.
World Day of Recycle
Today marks the World Day of Recycle ,declared by the UNESCO
Recycomp Project is focused in the reutilization of uncured scrap material, aiming at preparing it for a subsequent reuse for the manufacturing of functional components.

Bases and benefits of our Recycomp Project
We have prepared the following short video to show you the bases and benefits of our Recycomp Project.
More sustainability for the aeronautical sector
The Tekniker technology centre is currently leading the RECYCOMP project to develop a machine that will allow surplus materials resulting from industrial processes be used again. The initiative will also address the analysis and control of recycled materials required manufacture components for the aeronautical sector.
“The option of being able to reuse PREPREG cuttings helps to minimise the amount of waste produced by rolling processes and their value increases because they can be used again to manufacture new components”, explains Oscar Gonzalo, a Tekniker researcher.
