What Chozen Plastindo does

Chozen Plastindo is an Indonesian PET recycling company headquartered in Sidoarjo, East Java, that transforms 100% post-consumer PET bottles into rPET flakes and rPET resin for downstream industrial buyers. Founded in 2000 as Sumber Rejeki Sejahtera and rebranded under its current name in 2016, the company operates a single integrated facility in Balongbendo, Krian, with stated capacity to recycle approximately 1 billion plastic bottles annually sourced from 7+ Indonesian provinces and to export to 10+ countries.

The company's product portfolio is divided into two lines: rPET Flakes (HWAB clear-white Grade A for high-grade film, BOPET, PET bottles, and polyester staple fiber; HWABC clear-white Grade B for yarn and blending with virgin resin; HLB-M1 light-blue flakes) and rPET Resin (amorphous PHG-F, PHT, and PLB-M1, plus crystallized KHG, KHT, and KLB-M1 variants), with a custom-product SKU for spec-driven orders. In May 2023 Chozen announced acquisition of EREMA's VACUNITE bottle-to-bottle system — combining VACUREMA extrusion with vacuum-assisted Solid State Polycondensation licensed from Polymetrix — and the line became operational in Q1 2024, positioning the company in food-contact-grade pellet production. No patents, proprietary AI systems, or third-party certifications are disclosed.

Revenue is generated through transactional one-time sales of rPET materials to textile and fiber manufacturers, plastic packaging producers, and film/sheet converters. The go-to-market is sales-led and direct: customers reach the company via website contact forms, WhatsApp, and email for quotes; marketing relies on the corporate website, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and sustainability-focused news content. The company is privately held with no disclosed external investors, funding rounds, parent entity, or audited financials; the 43-person headcount is lean relative to the operational throughput, consistent with an automated, capital-intensive single-site operation.

Product overview

Chozen Plastindo is a PET plastic recycling company that transforms 100% post-consumer PET bottles (used in soft drinks, beverage bottles, food packaging) into rPET flakes and rPET pellets. The company operates with two main product lines: rPET Flakes (including HWAB Grade A Clear White Flakes, HWABC Grade B Clear White Flakes, and HLB-M1 Light Blue Flakes) and rPET Resin (including PHG-F, PHT, PLB-M1, KHG, KHT, and KLB-M1 variants in amorphous and crystallized forms). They also offer custom product development to meet specific customer specifications. The company sources PET bottles from across Indonesia and supplies to industries including polyester films, textiles, food grade packaging, and bottles. In 2024, they invested in VACUNITE® bottle-to-bottle technology from EREMA to expand their food-grade rPET pellet production capacity.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• ALPLA Werke: Austrian global rigid plastic packaging manufacturer that has invested heavily in food-grade rPET recycling. Comparable as both an rPET pellet supplier and an integrated packaging customer, though its core business is broader than recycling.
• Veolia: French environmental services and waste management giant with PET recycling operations in Europe and Asia. Comparable as an integrated waste-collection-to-rPET producer, though recycling is one segment within a much broader portfolio.

Direct peers

• Far Eastern New Century: Taiwanese integrated PET/resin and textile manufacturer with a recycling division producing rPET pellets for fiber and packaging end-uses. Comparable product mix and customer overlap in polyester fiber and food-grade packaging.
• Phoenix Technologies International: Ohio-based producer of food-grade rPET pellets using bottle-to-bottle recycling technology. Directly comparable as a merchant supplier of food-contact rPET to packaging converters and brand owners.
• Indorama Ventures: Thailand-based global leader in PET resin production with a large in-house rPET recycling division (Indorama Ventures Recycling) operating bottle-to-bottle facilities worldwide, including in Southeast Asia. Closest comparable by product (rPET resin/pellets), scale, and customer base.

Others

• Polymetrix: Swiss supplier of Solid State Polycondensation (SSP) technology, subsidiary of EREMA Group and actual technology provider to Chozen's VACUNITE line. Relevant as upstream enabler of Chozen's food-grade capability rather than a direct competitor.

Emerging players

• APK Group: German plastic recycling technology company (now part of LyondellBasell) producing recycled polyolefins and PET from complex waste streams. Comparable as a technology-driven recycler serving similar packaging and film markets.
• Loop Industries: Canadian PET and polyester depolymerization/recycling technology company targeting food-grade resin. Comparable end-product (food-grade rPET) but differentiates on chemistry rather than mechanical recycling.
