Plastic film is made of PP, PE, and PVC and is used for packaging and as a laminate. Common thin film plastics include plastic bags, woven bags, agricultural films, etc. Plastic packaging and plastic packaging products are taking up a larger and larger share of the market and have been widely used in food, medicine, and chemicals. Among them, food packaging accounts for the largest proportion, such as beverage packaging, frozen food packaging, fast food packaging, etc., and these products have brought great convenience to people’s lives.
Plastic film is one of the most widely used plastic materials in daily life and industrial production. From food packaging to agriculture and logistics, can be found almost everywhere. However, due to its lightweight structure and flexible properties, plastic film waste is also one of the most challenging plastics to recycle. Improper disposal can seriously harm the environment, wildlife, and human health.
Therefore, recycling plastic film not only protects the environment but also allows for the extraction of value.Shuliy Machinery provides a professional plastic film granulating line and has helped customers in many countries profit from their plastic recycling business.
Plastic Recycling Granulating Line Process
Plastic recycling granulating lines are designed to convert plastic waste into high-quality recycled plastic pellets. They are widely used for processing plastic film, plastic bags, woven bags, and other plastic scraps.
Plastic Film Feeding
The recycling process begins with collecting and feeding plastic film waste into the production line. Common materials include agricultural film, packaging film, shopping bags, and industrial plastic scraps.
Plastic Shredder Crushing
A plastic shredder breaks large plastic materials into smaller pieces. This improves processing efficiency and prepares the material for the next recycling stage.
Plastic Pelletizer Machine Processing
The crushed plastic enters the plastic pelletizer machine, where it is heated, compressed, and processed into recyclable material.
Plastic Pelletizer Melts and Extrudes
Inside the machine, the plastic pelletizer melts and extrudes the plastic through a screw and heating system, forming continuous plastic strands.
Plastic Pellet Cutting Machine
Finally, the melted plastic strands pass through a plastic pellet cutting machine, which cuts them into uniform recycled plastic pellets.
What are the Common Recyclable Plastic Films？
Common recyclable plastic films include plastic packaging film, agricultural film, plastic bags, stretch film, and industrial protective film. These materials are widely used in packaging, agriculture, logistics, and daily household applications. After recycling, they can be processed into recycled plastic pellets for manufacturing new plastic products.They are usually made of PP PE and can be recycled and reused.
