Recycling made simple

The recently concluded InterPlas Thailand 2018 served as an ideal venue for Polystar to promote its recycling system. The Repro-Flex offers a simple and practical solution for the recyling of packaging films, according to Sales Manager Jack Lin. 

 

The machine is ideal for blown and cast film producers dealing with HDPE, LDPE, PP shrink, stretch film, BOPP, CPP, OPP leftover waste of edge trim from blown film in the format of scraps (T-shirt bags cut-offs from bag making processes), as well as complete film rolls which can be efficiently recycled in a simple process. "Most packaging film producers generate production wastes and those materials can be recyled by Polystar machine into high-quality pellets so instead of throwing away the waste materials, these can be re-used. And the whole process is good for the environment and enables the customer to cut costs," Mr. Lin stressed.

It is a one-step direct technology that can undertake cutting, extrusion and pelletizing and it's very easy to install, operate and maintain. It's ideal for the reprocessing of flexible packaging materials, printed and non-printed. This cutter-integrated pelletizing system eliminates the need of pre-cutting the material, requires less space and energy consumption while producing high quality plastic pellets at a highly productive rate.

Polystar's last appearance at InterPlas Thailand was five years ago. This year, the company felt that it's the perfect time to be back as the plastics industry in the ASEAN region is growing more than that in Europe.
