100% Recycled Carbon Fiber for Compounding & Thermoset Applications
The Economical Solution for Recycled Carbon Fiber
Vartega recycled carbon fiber (rCF) is a sustainable lower cost alternative to virgin CF for thermoplastic compounding and thermoset applications. We source reclaimed carbon fiber from post-industrial dry fiber and prepreg scrap sources, maintaining the same mechanical properties as traditional chopped carbon and can be used as drop in replacements for many leading virgin CF fibers on the market today. Custom sizing solutions are available to ensure optimal bonding with most types of thermoplastics such as PETG, PA, PC, PU, PP, and Epoxy.

Vartega EasyFeed Bundle Technology
Vartega EasyFeed Bundle technology is designed to enhance rCF processing and ensuring compatibility with a wide variety of polymers, fibers, fillers, and processing methods. This versatility allows for improved efficiency while ensuring that both mechanical and chemical specifications are met. Whether you are looking to optimize performance or streamline production, our bundles are tailored to support a wide range of applications in the industry.
Recycled Carbon Fiber Utilizes 96-99% Less Energy than Virgin Carbon Fiber
Recycled carbon fiber (rCF) provides a significant advantage over virgin carbon fiber, utilizing 96-99% less energy during its production. This reduction in energy consumption does not compromise the mechanical properties, which remain comparable to those of virgin materials. Additionally, Vartega's rCF can be tailored with custom sizing chemistries, enhancing surface adhesion to meet the specific requirements of various industries. By choosing rCF, companies not only benefit from high-performance materials but also contribute to environmental sustainability, making a positive impact on our planet.
