Néolithe - Reducing the carbon impact of waste treatment

Néolithe deploys high-capacity plants

Néolithe deploys industrial units, known as Fossilizators, at the heart of local territories to sustainably process ultimate waste. These plants, capable of treating 100,000 tonnes of waste per year, produce construction materials.

Providing an alternative to landfill and incineration while complementing existing recycling channels, they help prevent emissions and sequester the biogenic carbon contained in the processed waste. In addition to supporting the ecological transition, their installation creates 60 local jobs, that cannot be relocated.

The first high-capacity plant will be operational by 2027.

Néolithe

A new path for ultimate waste treatment

Founded in 2019, Néolithe is a company of 150 people based in Anjou, near Angers, specializing in the material recovery of non-recyclable, non-inert, and non-hazardous waste.

A circular alternative to landfill and waste incineration

Néolithe aims for the highest possible waste recovery while promoting waste reduction: what can be avoided should be, and what can be reused or recycled must be. Our industrial process, through an oversorting operation, extracts more recyclable materials and redirects them to the appropriate channels. Through Accelerated Fossilization, the remaining residues are transformed into aggregates that store carbon.

Néolithe contributes to the rise of a New Industry

Néolithe’s voice embodies the values of the New Industry : an industry that innovates to address real environmental emergencies, not to create artificial needs. Committed to a circular approach and mindful of resources, Néolithe collaborates with other engaged companies (in chemistry, textiles, waste management…) that share the same drive to act differently.
