On January 29, 2026, Aduro Clean Technologies Inc. selected Chemelot Industrial Park in the Netherlands for its first-of-a-kind (FOAK) industrial facility, marking a shift from pilot-scale validation to commercial production. The plant will process about 10,000 tonnes of waste plastics per year using Hydrochemolytic technology.

This choice reflects a strategy to mitigate risks by utilizing established infrastructure within a chemical industrial cluster. The facility's location facilitates compliance with EU recycling regulations and proximity to downstream markets, enhancing economic viability. The operational data generated in the next 18-24 months will be critical for validating Aduro's approach to chemical recycling.
