Sulzer Japan

Sulzer provides proven biopolymer (PLA/PCL/PEF) production technology covering the entire value chain from lactic acid feedstock to high-quality biopolymer resin. Leveraging expertise in polymerization, purification, separation, and crystallization, Sulzer enables efficient, reliable, and scalable manufacturing of bio-based polymers. With multiple commercial references worldwide and dedicated application development support, Sulzer helps customers accelerate the commercialization of biopolymer for packaging, fibers, consumer products, and other sustainable applications, supporting the transition to a circular plastics economy.

Sulzer offers innovative technologies for chemical recycling and purification that help transform plastic waste into valuable resources. Featured solutions include MaxFlux™ high-efficiency separation technology, EcoStyrene™ for styrene recovery and polystyrene recycling, and PyroCare™ for upgrading pyrolysis oil from mixed plastic waste. Together, these technologies enable higher process efficiency, improved product quality, and enhanced circularity, supporting the production of recycled feedstocks and sustainable polymers for the future.

Sulzer provides advanced technologies for polymer production, helping manufacturers improve product quality, energy efficiency, and process reliability. SMR/SMX polymer heat exchangers deliver superior heat transfer and temperature control for highly viscous polymers. DEVO devolatilization technology efficiently removes residual monomers and solvents while consuming significantly less energy than conventional steam stripping. SMX/SMXPlus static mixers ensure highly efficient mixing of additives and masterbatches in high-viscosity polymer systems, enabling consistent product quality with low operating and maintenance costs.
