Current efforts towards achieving Circular Economy

Recycling of automotive ASR

We sell recycled plastics made from automotive-derived waste plastics to the consumer goods sector, including home appliances and logistics materials.
We will contribute to the further adoption of Circular Economy.

PLANIC

Since 2022, Toyota Tsusho has starterd full-scale operation of PLANIC, which is one of the largest manufacturers of recycled plastics in Japan.

Waste tires and waste rubber parts' collection / Chemical and material recycling

We aim to achieve "Circular Economy" by establishing a scheme for both chemical and material recycling using waste tires and waste rubber parts' as raw materials in Japan.

Main Testing Services

Foreign material detector

TOYOTSU Chemiplas operates the Quality Support Center (QSC) and contributes to our customers’ timely quality control through the sorting of a wide variety of foreign material (lightweight, different color, metal) using various inspection devices and foreign marerial inspection equipment, as well as speedy screening through real-time analysis.

Quality Support Center

Equipment / Features

Wind sorter

Sorting lightweight foreign material (fiber, wood chips, powder) contained in resin (pellets and flakes) that is assumed to be contamination

Optical sorter

Based on the standard of good products, foreign materials are separated (deferent color pellets, black spots, pebbles)

Metal sorter

Sorting metal foreign material(can also detect aluminum and stainless steel) from resin (pellets/flakes)

Real-time analysis

We have equipment that allows us to perform repeated measurements quickly and easily, centering on analyzers that can confirm the structure and composition of resins.
We will analyze any changes in the material as soon as possible after the sample arrives and report the results to you as an initial check during the Initial Stage Control or as an initial investigation into any defects that may occur.

Equipment / Features

Fluorescence X-ray analyzer (EDX)

SOC(Substances Of Concern)/foreign material analysis

Infrared spectrophotometer (FT-IR)

Chemical structure of materials/Foreign material analysis

Thermogravimeter-Differential Thermal Analyzer(TG-DTA)

Resin reinforcement content/thermal properties

Simple moisture meter

Water absorption rate/heating weight reduction rate

Pellet shape measuring device

Pellet shape/size distribution

Evaluation of recycled resins

・Finely crushes resin flakes.
・We also create test pieces from recycled pellets and resin flakes containing foreign material.
(* Please inquire for detailed conditions)

Equipment / Features

Crusher

Finely crushing (under 5mm) of recycled resin flakes

Tabletop molding machine

Test pieces made from a small amount of recycled resin (1kg) and their physical properties evaluation

Contracted weatherbility testing

TOYOTSU Chemiplas, as the Japanese distributor of ATLAS, offers contract services for weatherability testing and evaluation testing of products and materials.
We utilize our global exposure test site network to propose tests that meet our customers’ needs.

accelerated weathering tests site

Evaluation of rechargeable batteries and fuel cells

We can offer testing and analysis of fuel cells and rechargeable batteries, which are important development elements for electric mobility, at a variety of scales, from the nano level to actual product size.
We also provide support for overseas regulatory certification and local testing.
