    High automation leads to impressive production efficiency while optimising energy consumption for lower operational costs.

  • Superior Cleaning Performance

    Advanced multi-stage cleaning processes ensure flakes are meticulously cleaned, free from contaminants and odours.

  • Versatile Application Range

    Proficiently processes a diverse array of rigid plastics, including PET, HDPE, PP, and more, offering flexibility for various feedstock.

  • Environmentally Responsible Design

    Features closed-loop water systems and minimal discharge designs, adhering to stringent environmental standards.

Inside the Line: Equipment Composition

A comprehensive line is an assembly of specialized modules, each performing a critical function in the transformation of waste plastic into reusable material.

Equipment Component Primary Function
Feeding Conveyor BeltEnsures a consistent and even feed of raw material into the recycling plant.
ShredderInitially shreds the material into smaller, rough pieces, preparing it for the granulator.
GranulatorReduces the size of the plastic pieces further, creating a more uniform particle size for efficient washing.
Screw Washer / AugerTransports material while simultaneously washing it, often used for conveying between stages.
Sink-Float Separation TankSeparates plastics based on density; e.g., PET (sinks) from PP/PE caps and labels (float).
Centrifugal DryerMechanically dries the product by means of high-speed rotation, removing the bulk of surface water.
Thermal Dryer SystemUtilises hot air to achieve final low moisture content in the flakes.
Zig-Zag Classifier / Air ClassifierEffectively removes light contaminants such as labels, film fragments, and fine dust particles.
Bagging Station / Silo SystemCollects and delivers the final clean product into large storage bags or silos.
Electrical Control PanelProvides a centralised interface for operators to monitor and control the entire system effectively.

Versatile Applications: Where Our Lines Excel

    Adoption of eco-friendly cleaning agents and advanced water filtration systems, aiming for near-zero discharge.

  • Modularity and Customisation

    Emphasis on modular designs allowing for easier customisation, scalability, and upgrades to meet evolving client needs.

Tangible Benefits of a Rigid Plastic Washing Line

  • Reduces Plastic Waste

    Significantly diminishes the volume of plastic ending up in landfills or polluting natural ecosystems, helping to alleviate environmental strain.

  • Conserves Natural Resources

    Lessens the demand for virgin petroleum-based resources, reducing the carbon footprint associated with new plastic production.

  • Promotes a Circular Economy

    Transforms waste materials back into valuable resources, encouraging sustainable manufacturing and consumption patterns.

  • High Return on Investment

    Generates revenue from the sale of recycled flakes and lowers disposal costs, delivering significant economic benefits and a swift ROI.

Please note: Equipment configuration and the specific process flow will be carefully optimised according to the characteristics of your raw materials and desired output.
