Loop Industries (NASDAQ: LOOP), a clean technology company whose mission is to accelerate a circular plastics economy, has chosen the Chemesis industrial platform in France as the location for it’s new manufacturing facility to produce 100% recycled polyethylene terephthalate plastic and polyester fiber.

The company says that the new facility will help meet growing demand for recycled polyethylene terephthalate plastic.
