faq

  • First, our shredders break plastic waste into small flakes. Then, these flakes can be melted down in one of our melting machines that use pressure and heat to mould the plastic into something new.

    We offer different melting processes, which let you create a variety of objects — from sheets and beams to precise and high quality plastic products.

  • Our machines are designed to be easy to use — anyone can get started! While it helps to be a bit handy, we provide clear documentation and offer in-person training when needed to make sure you feel confident running and maintaining the machines.

  • Our machines work with thermoplastics like PP, PE, and PS most effectively, and other resins can be tested too. However, we don’t recommend melting PET because the results aren’t great, and PVC should also be avoided due to the highly toxic fumes it releases.

  • We offer three lines of machines: the MINI line costs a few hundred euros, the BASIC line ranges from €1,000 to €5,000, and the PRO line ranges from €10,000 to €30,000. You can find detailed pricing in our catalogue.

  • Absolutely — this is actually our specialty, and we love doing it. We can provide just the machines, or handle everything from project planning, market research, packing, shipping, and export, to installation, testing, user training, and even connecting you with sales or maintenance partners.
    Whether you want a full turnkey solution or just some expert support here and there, we’ve got you covered.

  • Our machines are pretty straightforward to maintain. Aside from some occasional greasing and oil changes, regular upkeep is minimal. Most parts are designed to be easily replaced using common components or even remade with accessible tools. For the few specialized parts that aren’t as simple, we’re happy to supply spares no matter where you are.

  •  Yes, our machines are CE marked, meaning they meet the essential safety and environmental standards required in Europe. This certification ensures our equipment is reliable and safe to use. We’re committed to maintaining high quality and compliance across all our products.
