CADEL DEINKING is a technological development company created with the aim of implementing plastic recyclers and converting companies in an innovative plastic recycling process, through which it is possible to eliminate printed ink on plastic surfaces. The technology, developed by CADEL DEINKING , allows for the first time to eliminate the ink from the plastic before its recycling to obtain a product with a quality very similar to virgin plastic. This allows to use it in the same applications as a new material. It is a unique technology in the world, whose patent has been extended to more than 20 countries. CADEL DEINKING has a demonstration plant in San Vicente del Raspeig (Alicante) that allows to carry out all the steps of the process on an industrial scale. CADEL DEINKING demonstrates in its facilities the feasibility of the process technique before the companies interested in arranging the technology, mainly large film printers and recyclers. The tests carried out at the CADEL DEINKING deinking plant with the client material are a key step before licensing the technology and developing the engineering at the client's facilities. The companies that choose to install a de-inking plant in their facilities will increase their competitiveness, since they will offer their customers a recycled material of very high quality. CADEL DEINKING shares the efforts of industries to improve the quality of products with increasingly sustainable processes and methods.

Nowadays the development of more and more sophisticated machines and constructions is not possible without computer aided design (CAD) software. But the development of CAD drops behind the demands of manufacturing. The decade from late 80’s to late 90’s was a revolutionary period for the CAD industry. This revolution was initiated by Parametric Technology Corporation (PTC) that introduced parametric feature-based approach to solid modeling, which became de facto the standard for the industry. But the last decade was the years of stagnation in the CAD industry. It was the time the industry was waiting for big game-changing technologies and product to come. Cloud Invent goes to the market with such ground-breaking technology – Cheetah Solver, which allows resolving constrained geometric models containing hundreds of thousands of constraints (solvers of the leading CAD vendors are able to resolve only about some hundreds of constraints). This is their main technological pillar - none of their competitors have a geometric modeling technology that is even close to what they have. Another technological pillar, Cloud Invent is rested on, is the cloud computing, which is supposed to become the mainstream of the software development for the next decades. While main CAD vendors are hesitating whether there are enough reasons to move to the cloud, they are ready to jump now into this new brave world. One of the main bottlenecks of the traditional CAD software is the parallelization of computations in order to use, on one hand, functionality of modern multi-core processors, and, on the other hand, advantages of distributed computing in a cloud environment. The situation with Cheetah solver is the opposite – it is ideal for parallelization, and cloud environment is the perfect place for its race. Cheetah might be a driving force for transition of the CAD industry to such a cloud platforms as Windows Azure of Microsoft, or Amazon Web Services (or some other cloud platforms). Cheetah not only uses the full power of multi-core processors, but can offer cloud environment to any CAD user as his personal super-computer (with unlimited power) and do it on the basis of a much more attractive price model than the traditional per-workplace licensing.
