About us
We are a young and dynamic team, capable of improving ourselves every day.
We face challenges, we provide solutions.
Our history
Our company was born within the University of Alicante after several years of research in the field of waste management and plastic recycling carried out by the founders of Fych. As a result of those years of work, three technologies were patented focused on increasing the recyclability of plastic products and improving the quality of recycled plastics so that they can be used in high value-added applications, thus contributing to the implementation of the Circular Economy in the sector. The Fych company was born with the aim of transferring the technologies and knowledge generated to the industry and continuing to use our research essence to provide technological solutions to waste management.
