What to do with the packaging plastic? The company Krones aims at closed circuits with its solutions..

An example of this is the Metapure recycling plants. According to the manufacturer, between 150000 and 200000 tons of PET bottles are recycled per year, depending on the demand involved, in different material qualities up to and including food-grade PET.

Because the company is pursuing a holistic approach, it is step by step expanding its technology to cover additional types of plastic. The Meta Pure W washing modules can already be used not only for PET, but also for processing polyolefins (PO).
