Cleaning the world of cigarette butts

Solving pollution from cigarette butts.

Through the use of science, we have developed a unique technology to recycle them, recovering the plastic from its filter, and turning it into a new sustainable material.

Our technology

Through a chemical process, completely sustainable from its design, we are able to remove all the toxic substances contained in cigarette butts and recover the valuable cellulose acetate from which the filter is made.

  • We recover the acetate
  • We eliminate the toxicity
  • 40% Less carbon footprint
  • Scalable and exportable technology

Celion®

Transforming cigarette butts into a sustainable material for the future. Celion® is the world’s first pellet based on cellulose acetate recovered from cigarette filters. It is a unique material that can be used in conventional plastic molding processes, while helping to clean the planet.
