Product catalog summary
Introduction
Plastic plays a crucial role in modern innovation, particularly in light of increasing raw material costs and the demand for sustainable management and recycling. This document highlights the significance of recycling plastic waste as a secondary raw material across various sectors.
Recycling and Sustainability
The European Union aims to eliminate plastic waste landfilling by 2020, requiring cooperation among suppliers, processors, and recyclers. EREMA's recycling systems are globally recognized, providing solutions for complex applications in industries such as automotive, compounding, bioplastics, and wood-plastic composites (WPC).
EREMA System Features
  • Flexibility: Capable of processing diverse input materials.
  • Process Stability: Ensures reliable material intake and operation.
  • User-Friendliness: Simplified operation through the Smart Start principle.
  • Extensive Product Portfolio: Offers customized recycling solutions.
  • Output: Delivers high throughput and pellet return rates.
Automotive Applications
Plastics are increasingly used in automotive sectors to reduce weight and enhance fuel efficiency. The EU End of Life Vehicles Directive mandates 95% recycling of vehicle weight by 2015. EREMA provides in-house recycling solutions like COAX® and INTAREMA® T, focusing on energy efficiency and high-quality output for automotive parts and batteries.
Compounding with COREMA®
COREMA® integrates recycling and compounding, enabling the production of customized plastic recyclates. It processes a wide range of raw materials and additives, improving the quality and application potential of recyclates.
Bioplastics
Bioplastics are increasingly popular, especially in packaging. EREMA has developed recycling solutions for bioplastics, distinguishing between biobased and biodegradable types. The INTAREMA® T system is effective for processing sensitive materials like PLA.
Wood-Plastic Composites (WPC)
WPCs are expanding at a 20% annual rate, used in construction, automotive, and furniture industries, offering benefits like longer service life and higher resistance.
Conclusion
EREMA's innovative technologies and extensive experience provide effective recycling solutions across various industries, promoting sustainability and reducing environmental impact.

Simply versatile. Ideally equipped for special recycling jobs. Plastic – the innovation driver. The growing scarcity of natural resources means that raw material prices are increasing unstoppably. The only measures to counteract this are sustainable product management and effective recycling loops. As one of the most significant innovation drivers of the 21st century, plastic will play an even bigger role here. Using plastic waste in particular as an inexpensive secondary raw material with a variety of uses is the order of the day. Recycling instead of wasting resources. Waste materials are the...

Application-oriented. The EREMA solutions for special materials. Automotive Lightweight engineering with plastic. Whereas vehicles used to be made primarily of metals some years ago, plastics today already account for around 15 % of vehicle weight – and this figure is rising. The use of plastics in automotive applications is growing rapidly above all through efforts to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions in motor transport. Reducing vehicle weight through lightweight engineering measures is the most effective way of doing this, with plastics such as PP, PUR and PA and bioplastics playing...

Compounding – COREMA® Customised plastic recyclates. When recycling plastics ranging from production to post consumer waste from collection systems, quality fluctuations in the feed material can have a considerably negative impact on the property profile of the end product. Negative influencing factors here include not only mixed fractions of varying compositions, moisture, viscosity, type and degree of contamination but also the wide range of printed and laminated materials such as those in the packaging sector. In practice this often restricts the use of recyclates as both the possible applications...
