APPLICATION SOLUTIONS

PET Bottle Recycling Line Solutions

From incoming bottle bales to a defined flake specification. Set the quality target first, then compare the cleaning route and equipment scope.

Bottles

Clean flakes

Next process

Clear irregular PET bottle flakes on a cool neutral surface

01 / PROJECT FOCUS

Decide what the project must produce

Start with the next user of the material.

Bottle to washed flake

Define the flake quality, moisture and contamination checks with the intended downstream process.

Flake to further processing

If extrusion or another downstream stage is required, quote it as an explicit scope rather than assuming it is part of the wash line.

02 / PROJECT FOCUS

Review the cleaning route

Bottle sorting, size reduction, washing, separation and drying each address a different task. Review the proposed sequence against representative incoming material.

03 / PROJECT FOCUS

Specify quality at the handover

Make the acceptance discussion specific enough to compare supplier proposals.

01

Input boundaries

Bottle source, collection condition and expected foreign material.

02

Flake requirements

Agreed output checks, sampling and target application.

03

Process boundaries

Included separation and cleaning stages, water handling and utilities.

04

Downstream requirements

What the next process needs and who is responsible for verifying it.

04 / PROJECT FOCUS

Keep end-use claims evidence-based

A washed-flake line alone does not establish food-contact suitability. Any such project needs a separately documented process and the applicable validation for its target market.

BEFORE YOU ASK

Frequently asked questions

A wash-line proposal may stop at flakes. If pellets are required, specify the extrusion and downstream stages as part of the project.
No. Do not infer food-contact suitability from a washing stage or an image. The target application requires its own documented process and validation.
Representative incoming bottles and an agreed target-material reference help clarify the brief. Ask the supplier what testing it can provide.
Incoming contamination, target material, output requirement, site services and the downstream boundary are key parts of the brief.
