Coba Impact Manufacturing produces premium recycled PET flakes from post-consumer and production waste. As the first company in Ethiopia to launch a full-scale hot-wash recycling plant in April 2014, we use state-of-the-art Italian machinery to deliver high-quality, transparent flakes for export markets and eco-friendly industries.

Moreover, our advanced water treatment system complies with European standards, ensuring minimal environmental impact and clean discharged wastewater. This makes our recycled PET flakes a reliable choice for sustainable manufacturing worldwide.

The Recycling Process Our hot-wash process transforms collected PET bottles into superior reusable flakes through several precise stages:

• Bottle collection
• Bottle sorting by color and bottle type
• Delabling
• Wet crushing
• Hot Wash
• Drying
• ZigZag separation
• Optical sorting
• Packing

This is a pioneering project for the company where its objective is to introduce the importance to recycle plastics for environmental conservation and introduce the numerous advantages renewable energy offers to communities.

A lot of effort has been done in introducing a plastic bottles collection system in Ethiopia, where today we can proudly say that over 50,000 tons of post consume plastic bottles have been collected in Ethiopia by Coba Impact.
