Reasons to Recycle Your Scrap Plastics

In an ideal world there would be zero scrap from your production facility. However, even the most efficient operation produces a percentage of scrap material.

So what to do with it ?Why throw money away ?

With rising polymer prices the value of scrap material has never been higher. This coupled with rising energy and other production costs have made the need to make savings imperative.

The pellet produced using a MUNCHY System is of the highest possible quality = higher % back into production = higher cost savings.

What to do with all that edge trim, EPS, Bags, Sacks, and Purgings taking up valuable production space ?

If you were to recycle this scrap material with a Munchy you would not only eliminate your storage problem but you can re-fed the 1st Grade Quality Pellets back into your production for additional cost savings.

Whilst this may appear to be a reasonable solution to your scrap problem there are several issues with sending your scrap to a third party for recycling:

• How sure are you of the quality of the returned pellets ?
• How much are you paying for the service?

With an in-house Munchy Recycling System YOU are in complete control and have full knowledge of the quality of pellets.

It is either now illegal or soon will be in most countries to landfill or burn plastic material. In areas where this is still acceptable the cost remains high. Apart from the very serious environmental issues there is still the issue
of throwing away a valuable resource you have already paid for.

Using an in-house Munchy System you will be able to utilize a very high % of pellets back into your main production representing a very fast return on investment.

An energy efficient design and low maintenance ensures that on-going costs are kept to an absolute minimum.
