Plastic Recycling Washing Systems

Turnkey Plastic Washing Lines

Advanced Recycling Washing Systems for High-Purity Plastic Flakes

We engineer and build complete recycling washing systems for PET bottles, PP/PE films, woven bags, and rigid plastics, converting contaminated waste into clean, profitable recycled flakes.

  • Custom line design based on material type, contamination level, and target flake purity.
  • Integrated shredding, washing, hot wash, drying, and fines removal for stable production.
  • Engineering support from layout planning through installation, training, and after-sales service.

Your Partner in High-Performance Recycling Systems

We do not just supply machines. We deliver complete washing line solutions engineered for your material stream, operating targets, and long-term reliability.

Fully Custom Solutions

Every line is designed around your input material, capacity requirements, and purity targets to ensure optimal performance and efficiency.

Unmatched Output Purity

Our multi-stage washing, rinsing, and separation processes remove even tough contaminants, delivering market-ready flakes.

End-to-End Support

From initial design and installation to training and after-sales service, our team supports the project lifecycle from start to finish.

Our Proven 4-Stage Plastic Washing Process

Each stage is engineered to work in sequence, progressively cleaning and purifying the material for a high-quality final product.

1

Size Reduction & Pre-Washing

Baled or loose material is shredded or granulated. This initial stage often includes dry pre-cleaning to remove loose dirt and fines.

2

Intensive Washing & Separation

Flakes undergo high-speed friction washing and pass through float-sink tanks to separate plastics by density, such as PET from PP/PE caps.

3

Hot/Cold Rinsing

Multiple rinsing stages, including optional hot washing, remove residual glues, oils, and chemical contaminants for higher purity.

4

Drying & Fines Removal

A centrifugal dewatering machine and thermal dryer reduce moisture below 1%, while a zig-zag classifier removes remaining dust or labels.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this system wash plastic film?

Absolutely. We design specific washing lines for soft plastics like agricultural film or post-consumer LDPE film. These systems use specialized friction washers and dewatering presses optimized for flexible materials.

What is the water usage and can it be recycled?

Our lines are designed for water efficiency, typically consuming 1-2 tons of fresh water per ton of plastic. We also offer integrated water treatment and circulation systems that can recycle up to 80% of the process water, significantly reducing your operational costs and environmental footprint.

What footprint is required for a complete washing line?

The footprint depends on the capacity and components. A standard 1000 kg/h PET bottle washing line typically requires an area of approximately 500-600 square meters, such as 60 m long by 10 m wide. We provide detailed layout drawings during the proposal stage.

What is the price of a complete recycling washing system?

The price varies significantly based on capacity, plastic type, and contamination level. We provide a customized quote after a free consultation to match your needs and budget.

Does this system include a hot wash stage for removing tough contaminants?

Yes, we highly recommend and can integrate a hot wash module. While a cold wash is effective for general dirt, a hot wash system is superior for removing stubborn contaminants like glues, oils, and food residues.

How does the system handle paper and plastic labels on bottles?

Our system uses a multi-stage approach. A pre-washing and shredding stage removes some labels, float-sink separation removes paper and other materials, and a final zig-zag air classifier removes remaining fines and light particles.
