Company

Optical sorting technology, engineered alongside the recycling plant.

Founded in 2016 to advance plastics recycling through high-precision optical sorting. Today, UCY Technologies engineers software-defined sorting platforms for recyclers and plant integrators worldwide.

Engineering partnership

Close engineering synergy with STF Group.

For turnkey recycling and washing facilities, UCY Technologies collaborates closely with STF Group in Aicha vorm Wald, uniting specialized optical sorting technology with decades of global plant engineering experience.

This operational proximity provides a decisive advantage: we have been running and refining our sorting technology in 24/7 continuous production at both our own recycling operations and STF's commercial recycling plants, as well as at international customer facilities since 2017. Our systems are built, tested, and continuously enhanced under real-world industrial conditions.
