Krones Recycling: New compact configuration available
Krones, Chinaplas 2025 – Hall 10 Booth W21
From bales to food-grade flakes: the portfolio of Krones Recycling GmbH, based in Flensburg, Germany, covers the entire plastics recycling process. The modules for grinding, washing, sorting and decontamination are available both individually and as complete recycling systems. The heart of every Krones recycling system is the washing module, which has a major influence on the quality of the flakes. In addition to gentle processing for low-fines production, the machines and lines are also designed for efficient and sustainable use of energy and resources.
A new, more compact configuration of this washing module now offers customers a recycling process that is just as gentle on materials and resources. Made of the usual high-quality stainless-steel, but with a significantly smaller footprint at capacities of 2 to 3 mt/h – ideal for sites with less available space or for retrofitting. This configuration produces an even lower amount of fines. As with other configurations, the module can be used flexibly for both PET and PO recycling. Thanks to consistently high wash quality standards, it can also be used for bottle-to-bottle processes. The global service and sales network of Krones Recycling and Krones AG ensures local support.
At Chinaplas 2025, Krones Recycling will be showcasing this innovation for the first time, and inviting visitors to the German Pavilion to discuss the compact configuration and other innovations in plastics recycling.
