Shark Solutions

Shark Solutions is a Danish cleantech company founded in 2005 in Roskilde to keep laminated glass out of landfill. Its patented Shark Glass separation system takes windshields, building glass and other safety glass, splits the cullet from the polyvinyl butyral interlayer and leaves both streams clean enough to be sold on as raw material.

The company does not make the end products. It refines post-consumer PVB into powders, granules and films that industry turns into paints, foams, textiles and alternatives to leather, working with manufacturers across Europe and the United States, and it also sells the separation system itself. Recovering a material designed to stay bonded for the life of a vehicle is the whole business, and every application is documented for its environmental case.
