6 Core Advantages of PET Recycling Line
- Standardized graded capacity matching: Four mature models cover small workshops to large industrial recyclers, with clearly matched workshop dimensions, labor allocation, and water supply data for easy factory layout planning.
- Consistent premium flake output: No matter which capacity line customers select, final PET/PP-PE flakes maintain stable quality indicators, helping buyers get higher purchase prices from plastic pellet manufacturers.
- Low operation cost: The circulating water system recycles over 90% of process water; energy-saving motors reduce power consumption by 12% vs ordinary lines, and a reasonable workflow cuts required manpower significantly.
- High adaptability: The pet recycling line supports adjustable hot washing temperature and friction speed, handling oily, labeled, and heavily contaminated PET bottles from daily consumer waste.
- Low failure rate: Heavy-duty four-axis/dual-axis shredders with wear-resistant alloy blades and external bearing design prevent water and dust erosion, extending machine service life by 40%.
- Customizable configuration: We can add optical color sorters, Z-type air separators or fully automatic granulation units based on customers’ raw material types and profit targets.
Customer Case 1: YG PET Recycling Line for Canada|1000KG/H PET Bottle Recycling Line
Customer Background
This mid-sized recycling enterprise operates in Toronto, Canada, with 12 full-time staff. Its core market covers urban municipal waste sorting stations and supermarket plastic waste collection points, focusing on processing post-consumer PET beverage bottles and plastic cosmetic jars. Before cooperation, the client ran a small 500kg/h manual washing unit and planned to expand production to meet the local government’s plastic recovery quota policy.
Original Difficulties
- Their old 500kg semi-automatic line required 6 workers, but daily output only reached 4 tons; they could not fulfill long-term supply contracts with local plastic pellet factories.
- Self-built washing equipment could not remove adhesive labels completely, the final flake impurity hit 650ppm, so downstream buyers cut their purchasing price by 18%.
- No circulating water tank, consuming 8 tons of fresh water per hour, bringing high water bills and failing local environmental audit standards.
- Flake moisture stayed above 4%, forcing extra drying work and extending processing time by 3 hours per day.
Customized Solution
We recommended our standard 1000kg/h PET bottle recycling line. Per the technical specs, it requires a 70m×12m×6m workshop, 7–8 workers, and 7–10 tons of circulating water per hour. We equipped the line with dual high-speed friction washers, a constant-temperature hot degluing tank, and a heavy centrifugal dewaterer, plus a complete closed water circulation sedimentation system. We also provided English operation manuals and 3-day on-site training for local operators.
Problems During Installation & Commissioning
Challenge 1: The customer’s existing factory floor only had a 65 m length, shorter than the 70m standard workshop demand.
Solution: Our technical team adjusted the layout by shortening the floating rinsing tank and rearranging conveyor angles, reducing the total occupied length to 68m without cutting any washing processes.
Challenge 2: Local tap water pressure was unstable, affecting the hot washing tank temperature control.
Solution: We added a pressure stabilization pump and automatic water level sensor to the circulation system to maintain steady washing performance.
Production Effects
- Hourly output rose from 500kg to 1000kg, daily processing capacity increased by 100%, cutting project delivery cycle for bulk orders from 12 days to 6 days (50% time reduction).
- Final flake impurity dropped from 650ppm to 280ppm, metal content controlled under 15ppm; downstream manufacturers raised their purchase price by 16%, monthly revenue grew by 11,200 CAD.
- The circulating water system cut fresh water consumption by 82%, monthly water cost was reduced by 2,100 CAD.
- Finished flake moisture stabilized at 0.8%, eliminating extra drying labor and saving 3 working hours each day.
- Required workers only rose from 6 to 8, avoiding large-scale staff recruitment costs.

Customer Case 2: YG Pet Washing Line in Thailand-2000KG/H Mixed Plastic Recycling Line
Customer Background
A large waste treatment corporation based in Bangkok, Thailand, with 28 employees, serving industrial zones and rural waste collection hubs. Core business includes recycling PET bottles, PP plastic buckets and agricultural PE hard scraps, supplying clean flakes to domestic plastic molding factories and export traders. The company aimed to replace two outdated 1000kg/h lines with one high-efficiency 2000kg/h integrated unit.
Original Difficulties
- Two separate 1000kg/h lines needed 16 workers in total, and high labor expenditure squeezed profit margins heavily.
- Separate circulating water pools for two lines wasted space and water resources, consuming 18 tons of fresh water hourly.
- Old shredder blades wore out every 15 days, and replacement parts cost 3,500 THB monthly.
- Uneven flake sizes (5–25mm) led to unstable prices from export buyers, with frequent order delays due to insufficient daily output.
Customized Solution
We supplied our fully automatic 2000kg/h plastic recycling line. According to parameter standards, it needs an 80m×15m×6m production workshop, 10–12 staff, and 10–15 tons of circulating water per hour. The system integrated a four-axis heavy shredder, a triple-stage washing unit, and a large centrifugal dewaterer, unified into one large circulating sedimentation tank, and added an optical color sorter for classified PET flakes. We sent Thai-speaking technicians for a 4-day on-site installation and training.
Problems During Installation & Commissioning
Challenge 1: Tropical high humidity caused a slight rust risk on ordinary steel conveyors.
Solution: We replaced all exposed conveyor frames with thickened 304 stainless steel spare parts free of charge and added waterproof motor casings.
Challenge 2: Local raw plastic carries lots of tropical fruit glue, hard to fully remove by a single hot wash.
Solution: We adjusted the hot washing tank alkali mixing ratio and extended the material friction time by 2 minutes, eliminating glue residue on flakes.
Effects
- Single line hourly capacity hit 2000kg, overall daily output increased by 100% compared to the two old lines; bulk order delivery time shortened from 18 days to 7 days (61% faster).
- Total required workers dropped from 16 to 12, cutting monthly labor costs by 48,000 THB.
- The unified large circulation tank reduced fresh water consumption from 18 tons/h to 12 tons/h, monthly water expense decreased by 3,600 THB.
- Alloy shredder blade service life extended to 90 days, monthly blade replacement cost reduced by 83%.
- Flake size fixed at 10–16mm, moisture 0.9%, total impurities 220ppm; export buyers raised the flake purchase price by 12%, and monthly gross profit increased by 45,000 THB.
