Schred Material Recycling Equipment


R25 Schredder
 

Schred is an in-house recycling system. This equipment is suitable for use with most types of plastic, in particular the commonly used ones such as HDPE and LDPE (the materials most milk bottles are made from), HIPS (vacuum forming sheets) and acrylic.

The process works as follows:

Shred your used plastic

The R25 Schredder chips plastic material into small pieces. This reduces the volume of waste by up to 95%, and also creates a re-usable material.

Re-form the shredded material into new plastic sheet

The R30 sheet press forms the chipped plastic into new sheets of material ready for use.
