J&T Recycling Corporation (President: Hiroyuki Haseba, Headquarters: Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture, hereinafter "J&T Recycling"), a group company of JFE Engineering Corporation (President: Kazumi Fukuda, Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, hereinafter "JFE Engineering"), has reached an agreement on a business alliance (hereinafter "this business alliance") with BESTERRA CO., LTD. (President: Yutaka Honda, Headquarters: Koto-ku, Tokyo, hereinafter "BESTERRA") as follows:
Purpose of Business Alliance
J&T Recycling is a company that provides environmental solutions nationwide, primarily focusing on waste management and recycling operations. The company continues to pursue new challenges by evolving traditional recycling and resource circulation businesses, such as implementing horizontal recycling to transform used PET bottles into new ones, creating a double recycling loop that generates electricity and fertilizer from food waste, and establishing an integrated recycling business from advanced sorting to reprocessing to expand the use of used plastics.
BESTERRA is one of Japan's largest demolition specialists, primarily engaged in the demolition of large-scale plant facilities including power plants, steel mills, oil refineries, and petrochemical plants, with numerous project achievements nationwide. The company possesses unique demolition technologies, expertise, and patents that consider environmental impact, such as the "Apple Peeling Method" for cutting spherical storage tanks (gas tanks) like peeling an apple, and non-sparking demolition techniques for PCB-containing transformers developed through years of plant demolition experience.
In recent years, Japan has seen an increasing demand for recycling to form a recycling-based society, in addition to proper waste management, to achieve a sustainable society through the promotion of the circular economy.
To respond swiftly to these market changes, BESTERRA, with its expertise in recycling demolition waste materials, and J&T Recycling, which provides total solutions from environmental consulting to collection, transportation, intermediate treatment, and recycling, have agreed to this business alliance. By combining both companies' management resources and accumulated business expertise, they determined that this would further advance the recycling of waste generated during demolition work.
Moving forward, both companies will cooperate to promote proper waste management and develop demolition material recycling technologies to reduce environmental impact, contributing to the realization of a recycling-based and decarbonized society.
