Unilin secures U.S. patent for Osiris recycling technology

Osiris fiberboard recycling

Waregem, Belgium – Unilin Technologies, the intellectual property division of Unilin, has officially obtained US patent US 12,325,148 for its innovative Osiris recycling process. This newly granted patent broadens the international protection of the technology, following earlier recognition in Europe, and marks an important milestone for the development of circular wood fiber solutions in North America.

“By receiving this patent grant for the Osiris technology in the United States, we are expanding its impact to a major panel production market in the world,” said Louis Van Roy, business development director, Unilin Technologies. “This U.S. patent underlines the global relevance of the technology to turning waste fiberboards and production waste into high-quality raw materials.”

Osiris introduces a breakthrough in the recycling of wood fiberboard waste, materials that traditionally end up in landfills or incineration plants due to their complex composition. The process makes it possible to recover clean wood fibers that can be reintroduced into production lines alongside virgin material, supporting both sustainability targets and resource efficiency.

“Osiris brings together sustainability and profitability,” Van Roy added. “It not only supports greener production practices, it also provides manufacturers a clear competitive advantage. By reducing dependency on fresh wood inputs, the technology delivers both environmental responsibility and significant economic advantages – a combination we believe has the power to transform the industry.”

The Osiris technology is offered under exclusive license by Unilin in partnership with Dieffenbacher, the firm that delivers the required equipment and industrial integration.
