      Vancouver, WA For over seven years now, PDO Technologies has been focused on developing state of the art conversion technologies that reclaim and repurpose waste plastics before they are discarded into landfills (or worse). During this initial developmental phase, we’ve acquired operational conversion assets and are reconfiguring this equipment to take advantage of novel and exciting chemistries we have developed since the company’s inception. We expect our first full-scale pilot plant to come online soon… Show more For over seven years now, PDO Technologies has been focused on developing state of the art conversion technologies that reclaim and repurpose waste plastics before they are discarded into landfills (or worse). During this initial developmental phase, we’ve acquired operational conversion assets and are reconfiguring this equipment to take advantage of novel and exciting chemistries we have developed since the company’s inception. We expect our first full-scale pilot plant to come online soon and have partnered with best-in-class feedstock aggregators and product offtake distributors in an effort to provide an amazing “circular economy” solution to the problem of waste plastic. Our goal has always been to produce a technology that will clean the local environment, create local energy products, and employ local members of the community, without regard to geographic boundary or level of supporting infrastructure. Our vision is one in which any place waste plastics exist, a simple solution to the problem will coexist. Show less

      Beaverton, Oregon Agilyx was founded in 2004 with one simple goal in mind: Create a technology capable of taking the worst portion of the garbage stream (mixed waste plastic) and converting it into synthetic crude oil, capable of acting as a “drop in replacement” for fossil crude oil. Over the last ten years, the path of the company has been marked by challenges and accomplishments, and I am extremely proud of the team of people that embraced my vision as their own and poured their best efforts into fulfilling… Show more Agilyx was founded in 2004 with one simple goal in mind: Create a technology capable of taking the worst portion of the garbage stream (mixed waste plastic) and converting it into synthetic crude oil, capable of acting as a “drop in replacement” for fossil crude oil. Over the last ten years, the path of the company has been marked by challenges and accomplishments, and I am extremely proud of the team of people that embraced my vision as their own and poured their best efforts into fulfilling it. I have been privileged to meet with investors who have shared in the vision and have capitalized the effort; all of them truly “walk the walk” when it comes to promoting and facilitating the growth of sustainable, “clean tech” companies such as Agilyx. The company continues to move ahead with a very exciting and new approach to the conversion of waste plastic, and I continue to wish for nothing but the best for the current team in these endeavors.
