Overview

INOBUS builds AI-powered unmanned collection machines and an upstream-focused network for recovering, sorting, and distributing ultra-high-grade PET with roughly 99% purity. The company concentrates on collection and sorting stages rather than pursuing full vertical integration into processing and manufacturing. Following the Pre-Series A raise, INOBUS plans mass production of its unmanned machines, expansion across the greater Seoul area, and upgrades to its high-purity PET sorting infrastructure. Management is targeting a monthly distribution capacity of 500 tons of ultra-high-purity PET by 2027. Financially, INOBUS reported about 246% year-over-year revenue growth in fiscal 2025 and moved to operating profit and net income positive after prior losses. The company cites accelerating private equity interest in downstream PET recycling and scarcity of reliable upstream suppliers as strategic tailwinds for its business model.
