Learn more about PiovanGroup's technologies for working with recycled PET plastic.

  • Smart dryers ensuring overall process stabilisation
  • Oil condensers to condense low-boiling VOCs in the process air stream
  • Patented activated carbon filters for VOCs filtration
  • Gravimetric blenders providing multiple resin mixtures ready to be processed
  • Masterbatch and additive blenders along the downstream process
  • Scrap recovery systems for the reuse of internal preforms regrind
  • In-line Moisture Minder to detect in real time, the moisture livel before feeding the IMM
  • Quality inspection instruments for real-time detection of Acetaldehyde and Benzene
  • Supervisory software to track overall production lot processes and archive data

Whatever the quality of the rPET, with our integrated solutions you can process it as if it were virgin material!

SYSTEM LIFESPAN

DECREASE

  • Formation of highly corrosive acids that damage metal surfaces
  • Unscheduled dryer shutdowns and consequent need for extra corrective maintenance
  • Clogging of filters or ducts, blockage of blowers, leaching, contamination of molecular sieves

VARIABILITY IN PLASTIC PROCESSING

  • Different lots of recycled materials may cause variability affecting the finished product quality
  • Presence of dust causing black spots in the finished product
  • VOCs causing aesthetic and mechanical differences in the finished product

RISKS FOR THE

END CONSUMER

Presence of VOCs that could:

  • alter the organoleptic characteristics of the packaging contents
  • make packaging harmful to consumer health
