Insulation materials contain blowing agents such as pentane and (H)CFCs. We capture pentane and reuse it in the production of new insulation materials. (H)CFCs from older panels can no longer be reused, so we safely capture and neutralise them.
Reduce your footprint
Do you manufacture products containing PIR or PUR? We help you transform residual and waste streams into new raw materials. By recycling these materials, valuable resources remain available within the supply chain for longer, helping to reduce the environmental impact of new products.
How can we work together?
Residual streams
Processing PIR and PUR always generates offcuts and other production waste. We take back these materials and process them into raw materials that can be reused in new applications.
Off-spec products
Are your products no longer suitable for sale for any reason? We recycle them, allowing the raw materials to be reused wherever possible.
End-of-life
Are your products at the end of their service life? We are happy to take them back—by agreement. Contact us to discuss project-specific options.
Creating impact together
Why send materials to landfill or incineration when they can be reused? By giving materials a second life as raw materials, valuable resources remain available for longer while avoiding unnecessary landfill and incineration.
Local recycling
We recycle in the Netherlands, using a fully electric and energy-efficient facility. By keeping the recycling process local, transport distances are minimised and materials are processed as efficiently as possible.
Lower environmental impact
By processing PIR and PUR materials again instead of incinerating or landfilling them, valuable raw materials remain available for longer and the environmental impact of these materials is reduced.
Together towards a closed-loop economy
Would you like to receive recycled raw materials back for use in your production process? We are happy to explore the possibilities with you.

Why choose Insus?
EASY AND EFFICIENT
We supply large collection containers (40 m³) that allow your team to easily collect residual and waste streams. We collect them periodically or on demand, so you can focus fully on your production processes.
FULL TRACEABILITY
We record every material stream we collect and recycle in detail. Need reporting for an internal audit, a sustainability report, or data for an LCA or MKI calculation? We provide clear, verifiable insight into your material flows and how they are processed. We also support you with data for LCAs, MKI calculations and sustainability reporting.
HIGH CAPACITY
No matter how much you collect, we can handle it. Our recycling facility in Duiven has a processing capacity of up to 20,000 tonnes per year. This not only helps us further close our own material loop, but also supports your organisation in keeping valuable raw materials in the supply chain for longer.
FULLY COMPLIANT
From national environmental legislation to the European F-gas Regulation, we comply with all strict requirements related to the transport, storage and recycling of PIR and PUR waste streams.
How we recycle your materials
#1 Capturing blowing agents
#2 Recycling PIR and PUR
Using innovative chemical recycling techniques, we convert PU rigid foam into polyol—a raw material for new insulation products.
#3 Purifying metals
We separate the steel or aluminium facing from (sandwich) panels. After thorough cleaning, these metals are suitable for reuse in industrial applications.
#4 Separating residual streams
Using advanced sorting technologies, we automatically remove residual materials (such as wood, rubber or plexiglass) from waste streams and process them for high-quality reuse.
These manufacturers have gone before you
Building circular ambitions together
FALK produces high-quality sandwich panels for roofs and façades and strongly focuses on circularity. Together with Insus, residual streams and end-of-life panels are recycled into new raw materials for insulation products.

From raw material to new insulation
Insus develops and produces PIR insulation boards for roof, floor and façade applications. Reusable raw materials from old sandwich panels and insulation materials are incorporated into production, giving them a new life in high-quality insulation products.
