Plastic out of the river.Fuel into industry.

We stop plastic in Metro Manila's waterways before it reaches the bay, and turn it into fuel oil and char for Philippine factories.

The Pasig carries more plastic to the sea than any other river studied. Most of it is sachets, films and wrappers no recycler will take. We take them from the esteros, from cities and from businesses, and turn them into fuel.

What we do

Two jobs. Stop plastic before it reaches the water, then make it worth more collected than dumped.

We stop it

We take the plastic no recycler wants, from waterways, cities and businesses, before it reaches the bay.

  • Collection in esteros and waterways before plastic reaches the river
  • Plastic from cities and businesses, for a tipping fee below landfill
  • Bottles and clean plastics sorted out and sold to recyclers. PVC removed
  • Every kilogram weighed and on the record

We make it useful

A sealed reactor heats the plastic without oxygen, so it breaks down without burning.

  • Industrial fuel oil and char for Philippine factories
  • Process gas reused to heat the reactor
  • First line: about 46 tonnes of plastic a day, 16,000 tonnes a year
Prepared plastic dried and shredded by KCP Intercept Sealed rotating reactor heated with no oxygen, so the plastic breaks down without burning vapour Condenser closed-loop cooling Industrial fuel oil bunded storage, sold locally Char solid carbon, sold locally Process gas, cleaned and reused fires the burners; flue gas is cleaned before release How KCP Processing converts plastic Continuous pyrolysis: one line runs around the clock, fed with prepared plastic from KCP Intercept.

What comes out, and how we prove it

Every delivery carries a certificate of analysis from an accredited laboratory. Until first production, the figures here are published results for comparable plastic, and we say so.

Open for pre-orders: first supply early 2028

Published values: plastic pyrolysis oil tested at DOST-ITDI against PNS/DOE QS 006-2005 (Olalo, Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2021) and international reviews. Not KCP results. Plastic pyrolysis oil already fires a coconut oil mill, an asphalt plant and fish-processing plants in Mindanao (DOST, 2025).

Giving soft plastic a value in the community.

Through our Education and Community Outreach Program (ECOP), weekly stops in riverside communities give sachets and films a small value, so they get collected instead of washed into the water. It sits alongside schools education, and it is one part of how plastic reaches us.

How an ECOP community stop works

Five steps, the same every week. Tap through them.

Every kilogram, on the record

The plastic is half of what we deliver. The other half is proof of where it came from, what happened to it and who it belongs to. Follow one bale.

Example record, for illustration

Who relies on it

    Weighed at certified pointsCertified scales at every stop, with the seller watching. Calibrated weighbridges at every plant.
    Reconciled dailyStop sales, truck totals and facility weights must balance. Gaps get flagged, not smoothed over.
    Audited independentlyA third-party verifier checks the records and the mass balance before any credit or report is issued.

    Work with us

    We are building the partnerships that secure plastic in and product out. Pick the one that fits you.

    People first. Environment built in.

    These apply at every KCP site from the first day of operation.

    People First

    Health support never costs a worker income.

    • An injured worker moves to dry-zone work on full pay until healed
    • Weekly health check-ins by a trained peer or nurse, never a supervisor
    • Health records held by our clinic, not by managers
    • Medical retainer, immunisations, first aiders trained in burns and water rescue
    • No retaliation for reporting a hazard, injury or health concern
    • WHS officer and safety representatives with authority to stop work

    Environment

    Controls built into the plant, not added later.

    • Pollution Control Officer reporting to the board, with authority to stop work
    • Emissions control and accredited stack testing under the Clean Air Act (RA 8749)
    • Sealed drainage, bunded fuel storage, hardstand under every process area
    • River water monitoring each quarter, wet and dry season
    • Solar power, rainwater capture, process gas reused as fuel
    • Zero single-use plastic on every KCP site

    Accountability

    Open to the communities we work in.

    • A grievance channel open to neighbours, sellers and staff
    • Environmental monitoring results published
    • Buying prices posted in Filipino at every stop
    • Sellers' personal data kept to a minimum and protected under the Data Privacy Act
    • DENR, local government and agency permits in place before operation
