26 TRADE SHOW REVIEW PETplanet Insider Vol. 24 No. 04/23 www.petpla.net Smart auxiliaries for aqueous plastics cleaning process CHT Group wi l l be showcasing auxiliaries for quality improvement and process optimisation in the aqueous plastics cleaning process. The focus will be on:  Tubiwash as a cleaning agent for plastics recycling with a high cleaning efficiency which leads to an outstanding flake quality and thus contributes to quality improvement. In addition, products from the Tubiwash range allow savings in resources such as water, energy and chemicals. The Tubiwash portfolio includes special products that support the decolourisation of packaging materials.  Tubifoam as an efficient process aid based on sustainable raw materials for the elimination of process foam: Low application quantities already promise smooth machine running and trouble-free water treatment. Mineral oil defoamers are not used in the interests of sustainability and health.  Tubiwet as high-performance deaerators which ensure a density-based separation of the individual plastics by type (e.g. PET and HDPE / PP) in the flotation bath. Despite adversities such as the energy crisis and war, CHT was able to record a success in the business field recycling solutions, setting new sales records. So, CHT recycling solutions remains optimistic despite a wide range of challenges. Indeed, these challenges are claimed to present opportunities for sustainable growth that CHT plans to take advantage of. In 2023, the CHT Recycl ing Solutions team plans to intensify customer relationships and help customers save energy. In addition to the expertise built up over more than 15 years worldwide, new, effective and efficient product solutions from CHT will support customers in this endeavor. This is intended to enable CHT’s recycling solutions team to master current challenges and strengthen its role as a global leader in the mechanical plastics recycling process. www.cht.com CHT Booth H10 High performance recycling additives Repi has been providing PET users, such as preform and sheet manufacturers as well as recyclers with functional and aesthetics recycling additives for more than ten years now. Those products are claimed to boost the use of recycled polymers, help adding growing rates of rPET in the packaging and last but not less crucial, help recyclers obtaining high quality rPET that will be used again and again by customers of the plastic packaging chain. Repi is thrilled to take part to the 2023 edition of the Plastic Recycling Show Europe, where the established product range made of Repi’s toners, anti-yellow, optical brighteners and IV enhancers will be promoted together with the latest liquid additive joining the recycling program: the StabiPlus. This additive has been designed to offer a further aid to partners and customers, acting on rPET actively as a protection additive. StabiPlus has proven to preserve rPET from ageing and discolouration loop after loop when used at different stages of the recycling process, namely at the recycling stage as well as in the converter’s process. www.repi.com REPI Booth F24
