Success Stories

Recycling PVC polymers systematically

A UK-based company specializing in the manufacture of PVC polymer products has specifically expanded its internal recycling capacities. The aim was to process bulky plastic waste directly on site and return it to the recycling cycle instead of disposing of it at great expense. Production waste and rejects are reduced to a defined size by shredding and then processed into granulate. This granulate can be directly reintegrated into the manufacturing process. The result of the project is a closed material cycle with measurable economic and ecological benefits.

Shredding as a key process: WURSI relies on WEIMA W5.14 shredders

Recycling natural fiber-reinforced plastics: Closing the loop with fungi and WEIMA

The NFK-Recycling project brings research and industry together: In collaboration with Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences and TU Dresden, WEIMA helps develop a sustainable recycling process for natural fiber-reinforced plastics. Innovative shredding technology paves the way for a biological recycling approach and a truly circular economy.

Reliable, Dependable, Profitable: How CPR, Inc. Uses Shredders to Turn Plastic Waste into Sustainable Growth

At its Mississippi facility, Commercial Plastics Recycling, Inc. uses WEIMA shredders to turn industrial plastic waste into valuable recycled material—proving that sustainability and profitability go hand-in-hand.

Large Containers, Small Footprint: IBC Container Recycling at Dansk Emballage in Denmark

The Danish company Dansk Emballage, Vamdrup, specializes in the collection and reprocessing of Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC). The containers are sorted, washed, and recycled on-site. A significant role in this process is played by a W5.18 single-shaft shredder.

Double WEIMA power at Remondis in Sweden

At the Remondis site in Röstanga, Sweden, HDPE pipes and other plastic waste from production are transformed into new raw materials using a WEIMA PowerLine 2500 shredder and a subsequent washing plant. Just 50 km away, a WEIMA S7.20 single-shaft shredder reduces large and heavy PE chunks in a Remondis recycling plant in Staffanstorp.
