First Plant for the Recovery of Food Packaging Waste
In September 2018 the world’s first facility for POAL recycling will be in operation to produce Ecoallene. AMUT has fully developed this pioneering project together with the Italian start-up Ecoplasteam.
Automatic and Continuous Screen Changer for Heavy Recycling and High Filtration Levels
Cofit International presented an important innovation in the field of screen changers at Plast 2018, its most innovative model for recycling highly contaminated plastics.
Quality at the press of a button
Trioplast France produces agricultural plastics films in Pouancé. The LDPE and LLDPE production and post used waste is recycled on two EREMA 1514 TVEplus® machines.
„Do not throw waste away, it can be used in another way!“
Regranulation is the easiest way to recycle a polymeric material and, for that purpose, single-screw extruders are employed. However, when the aim is toprovide an added value to thematerial or to preserve its fragile stability, the use of a co-rotating twin-screw extruder is mandatory.
New Sharp Eye Technology introduced
New brand application, made possible by higher light intensity, will be a welcome breakthrough at a time when demand for plastic bottles and trays is growing internationally. TOMRA Sorting Recycling has introduced a new technology called TOMRA SHARP EYE, which makes it possible to separate single-layer PET trays from PET bottles.
In-House Rheology Lab launched
With the ability to test materials before they are extruded, Guill customers receive testing coupled with industry experience and shorter lead times. Guill Tool has opened an in-house rheology laboratory, making it the only extrusion toolingmanufacturer in the industry with such a capability.
