Eni's Versalis and Prysmian have formed a strategic partnership to recycle plastic cable scrap using an innovative chemical process. Prysmian will collect plastic scrap from its production and decommissioned cables, while Versalis will process it at its Mantua plant using Hoop® technology to convert it into pyrolysis oil for new plastic polymers. The pilot project, starting in Italy in 2026, aims to recycle 60% of XLPE scrap into reusable material for new cables.
