MGG takes over MBA Polymers Austria
<![CDATA[Müller-Guttenbrunn Group (MGG), headquartered in Amstetten, Austria, has announced MBA Polymers Austria is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the recycling company. 

The plastic recycling plant in the Kematen, Austria, business park was founded at the end of 2004 as a joint venture between the American MBA Polymers Inc. and the Müller-Guttenbrunn GmbH. Built in 2005, the plant has been in production since the beginning of 2006.

MGG says a change of ownership of the American partner resulted in the surprising possibility for the company to completely take over the plant in Kematen. 

“We took this opportunity immediately. The location in Kematen has developed magnificently over the last few years and we are convinced that the company is perfectly suited to our strategic orientation,” says Christian Müller-Guttenbrunn, managing director of MGG.

The plant in Kematen is one of the most advanced plastic processing plants in the world, according to MGG. Approximately 125 employees produce high-quality postconsumer recycled plastics (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene [ABS], high impact polystyrene [HIPS], PP [polypropylene] and PC [polycarbonate]/ABS) from plastics made from waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). MGG says major investments were made in a fourth extrusion line and a new warehouse. As a result, the processing capacity at MBA Polymers Austria was increased to around 50,000 metric tons per year.
