Jürgen Schiffer has been appointed as the new Chief Financial Officer (CFO) by the APK AG Supervisory Board. The proven expert for finance, value-added processes as well as transformation and change management comes from Meyer Burger Technology AG, which specializes in photovoltaics. In addition to Meyer Burger, his earlier positions include Conergy AG and Q-Cells SE, both active in the field of renewable energies.

"Thanks to their special properties, plastics help to design products in a weight-optimized way and to reduce food waste through longer shelf lives. Plastics are therefore part of the solution towards a resource-efficient and CO2-neutral economy. However, establishing a true circular economy for plastics is still a major challenge in many areas. APK's unique Newcycling® technology can have a significant share to get closer to this goal. I am very proud to have been appointed as CFO by the APK AG Supervisory Board and to be able to contribute to shape the rapid growth of one of the most exciting companies in the recycling industry," says Jürgen Schiffer.

"With the existing plant in Merseburg and the future plants in Germany and Europe, APK will make an important contribution to being able to supply used plastics from private households to industry again as high-quality recyclates in the future. We have big plans and are convinced that with Jürgen Schiffer we have gained a proven expert who, with his expertise, will significantly contribute to mastering the upcoming tasks in an excellent way," says Casper Frijns, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of APK AG.

The plastics recycler APK plans to use its own “Newcycling” process to recycle mixed plastic waste from private households on a large industrial scale into sorted, high-quality recyclates. The LDPE recyclates produced are of a quality level that enables them to be used in a wide range of packaging applications. In addition to the existing plant in Merseburg, another, much larger plant for the production of plastic recyclates will be built in the Merseburg region in the near future.
