Co-processing – Molins

Driving positive change: Molins will recover more than 340,000 Tons of materials in Spain in 2025 

Molins is advancing toward a fully circular construction industry by transforming waste into high-value resources. Circularity is a strategic pillar embedded across all processes: from product design and raw material selection to manufacturing, valorising and end-of-life management. 

In 2025, the company expects to recover more than 340,000 tons of waste across its eight recovery plants in Spain. Through advanced co-processing technologies, Molins extends the lifecycle of materials while reducing dependence on fossil fuels. 

The recovered waste stream comes primarily from non-fossil urban waste and refuse-derived fuels, used as alternative fuels in clinker production. In parallel, the company produces alternative raw materials through crushing, screening and homogenization operations, helping reduce natural resource extraction and environmental impact. 

Molins’ circular economy solutions enable the decarbonization of large-scale projects such as sports stadiums, residential buildings and civil infrastructure, demonstrating that the construction sector already has the tools needed to deliver a low-emission future.
