Processing Of Plastic Waste

Our recylcing machinery can process multiple types of thermoplastic polymers in diverse forms. Important is that the waste is clean, contains one polymer only and is thermoplastic. Our largest polymer is PVC. About 60% of the processed plastic waste is rigid or soft PVC. The reaming 30% are mainly PP and HDPE but also LDPE and multiple engineering grade polymers. The plastic waste can be mixed or single-colour (black, white, grey etc.). We buy plastic scrap of the following polymers: We can process many different types of plastic waste independent of form or size. Our recycling machinery enables a flexible recycling of solid, thin-walled and powdery plastic waste.

Our machinery enables great flexibility at constantly high throughput to recycle your plastic waste efficiently and recourse-saving with help of different recycling processes Currently we run two modular recycling lines for clean, single-polymer and thermoplastic waste. One shredding-grinding line for up to 6.000 tons yearly and one modular shredding-grinding-agglomeration line for up to 9.000 tons which enables parallel or in-line grinding and agglomeration. With those two lines we can process any plastic waste the optimal, resource-efficient way. Since the foundation in 1997 we have developed a deep process knowledge for many types of plastic waste, to produce non-cloggy, free-flowing and dry regrind and agglomerate. After every polymer change our recycling lines are cleaned meticulously to avoid contamination from a polymer-mix. All metal parts are detected by metal detection and the recyclate runs through a dedusting machine before being filled into big bags.

By processing the waste to recyclate the waste is not treated as waste anymore but as a product (secondary raw material). This process excludes the waste originator from any liability risks associated with the plastic waste.

Clean and single-polymer plastic waste is the basis for high quality recyclates which can almost reach the product characteristics of virgin material. By closing the recycling circle natural resources and energy are saved. Our most important polymer is PVC. We produce a diverse range of rigid and soft PVC recyclates, yearly several thousand tons of mixed-colour, single-colour and white/ transparent secondary raw material. HDPE and PP are coming next in terms of quantity of recycling material followed by engineering grade polymers as ABS, PC and PA and several others. Depending on the type of waste we produce regrind or agglomerate with our recycling machines. Agglomerate is mainly produced from sheet, non-woven material, shavings and powder whereas regrind is produced from solid waste and thick layer sheets. We produce extrusion- as well as injection moulding qualities. Every sold Big Bag is tested on purity and humidity.
