Excess production material can be reused through post-industrial recycling. For example, edge trims can be reprocessed.
Post-industrial recycling essentially involves the regranulation (remelting) of unmixed, uncontaminated plastic waste.
With our solutions, you can handle this in-house - and benefit from many advantages:
We offer the construction of systems that are individually tailored to the recycling requirements of our customers
Recycling of production waste such as edge trim or sprues becomes possible
Greater efficiency and sustainability
Improved eco-balance
Rapid amortization of your investment
The recycling process can be performed inline: With inline processing, waste such as edge trim (bleed trim) or start-up rolls are fed directly back into the process - without intermediate storage or further processing steps.
Offline processing is necessary when material has to be prepared for the extrusion process - for example, cutting, shredding or grinding. Offline processes are also particularly useful for upcycling if the material is not only to be converted into a different form (granulate) (remelting). The addition of additives, colors, fillers and reinforcing materials as well as degassing processes can create added value.
Discover your options with us. Whether cost-efficient in-house recycling or upcycling - you can count on our process expertise. We will advise you on all aspects and find an economically and ecologically sensible solution.
