NPE2024 Recycling Centers Showcase the Future of Plastics Recycling
The two recycling centers at NPE2024 feature live demonstrations of cutting-edge recycling programs.
NPE2024 is hosting two recycling centers as a part of the Recycling & Sustainability Zone — located inside of South Hall and in the Westwood Parking lot behind West Hall. These full-service recycling programs are designed to recycle plastic scrap generated by exhibitors on the show floor. Featuring over 10,500 net square feet of machinery and process demonstrations, this showcase gives you a front row seat to the latest equipment and techniques used in plastics recycling. The recycling center features Weima’s WLK 15 and LM 600/100, as well as Conair’s TEC grinder feed conveyor with S+S metal detector, Viper 1736 with SG2 controls and Kongsklide airwash 100 evacuation/fines separation system — all of which you can see working in person.
