ESO RECYCLING is rooted in a business idea of Nicolas Meletiou, who, during his extensive experience in the sector, has always believed that refuse could be exploited to become a resource.
Long before anyone was talking about the circular economy, Nicolas Meletiou was dreaming up and designing recycling and reassessment of office and sports waste.
RE-SPORT is an innovative startup and a spin-off with the participation of the University of Bologna. We develop innovative technologies for the recycling and development of sports equipment and everyday products in plastic and compound materials.
RE-SPORT develops all the necessary steps towards the recycling of multi-material items at the end of their lifecycle, from proof-of-concept to design of finished systems, combined with the assessment of environmental impact and economic factors in the process.
