EREMA launches new company specialising in shredder/extruder tech

The EREMA Group has announced it is to expand with the formation of a new sister company specialising in technology for the recycling of production waste.

‘Pure Loop’ will focus on developing combined shredder and extruder technology for repelletising of production waste including film, tapes, fibres, nonwovens, fabric, hollow bodies, solid plastic parts and more.

The first plant systems offered by Pure Loop will be based on this technology and will be sold under the brand name "ISEC" (Integrated Shredder Extruder Combination).

Manfred Dobersberger, who was the co-founder and former co-owner of recycling machinery manufacturer, NGR GmbH, will head up the new company.

"With ISEC we are able to adapt to the scrap logistics of our customers in an optimum way, always with the aim of returning the largest possible amount of recycled pellets to production,” explained Dobersberger.

“The key lies in the handling of the material and, therefore, minimising the possibility of contamination as far as possible."

The official launch of Pure Loop and the global premiere, including live product demonstration of ISEC, will take place at the NPE show in Orlando, Florida, in March 2015.
