About

Shark Solutions is a Danish based cleantech global market leader focused on giving a new life to post-consumer PVB (PolyVinyl Butyral) from windshields and architectural/building glass (laminated glass). We are passionate about this superior raw material and eliminating the need for companies to dispose of it in landfills. In a world with limited resources we all have to take responsibility and action; and we make a difference in the laminated glass world of re- and upcycling. Our PVB recycling factories in Europe and the USA transform this former waste material into advanced sustainable polymers that have use in many industrial applications worldwide. We have developed applications in many industries, including carpet backing, paint and coatings, sound dampening – and we keep adding; all areas where the unique PVB polymer brings value over and above just replacing the existing virgin raw materials. Among others it helps our customers build Cradle-2-Cradle certified products and reduce their GHG/CO2 emissions.
