As a direct result of our more than 50 collective years of experience, knowledge and recycling of difficult materials, mixed polymer scraps & fines emanating from industrial and commercial waste arising, we have developed a unique moulding process capable of converting all thermoplastics without cleaning or separation.
PFM - Polymer Fusion Moulding can convert such "unrecyclable" waste materials into thick sheet product to compete directly with Plywood panels in its simplest form, and with much more elaborate, reinforced and technical sheet product in its most advanced form (all utilising the same patented technology).
Significant benefits of the plastic version extend beyond the product itself and reduce tree / forest destruction, reduce the massive transport and carbon costs of shipping predominantly from far off countries, and also, unlike timber, all sheets and off-cuts can be recycled again at their end of useful life
The various current design of the PFM plants can produce a range of production from 6 full size ( 2400 x 1200 x 18mm ) panels per hour, to more than 30 panels per hour for the largest robotic installation.
Plastics recycling being the last material to have received significant attention, is remarkably the most valuable and ubiquitous of all the commodity materials available for recovery, albeit perceived as the most difficult.
For more than 30 years this team, have promoted and developed various techniques and machinery capable of economically recycling the vast range of plastics and hybrids developed and used for a massive variety of consumer applications, which up until now, have had no consideration given to the "afterlife" of such materials and products.
Fusion Polymers have the experience, knowledge and background to provide solutions to complex industrial and municipal arising of plastic materials, and to present dynamic opportunities to companies willing to develop and manufacture value added products from these sometimes complex materials. Mixed and inseparable multi-layer films and materials, contraries and contaminants present no issues to solutions provided by the recycling and moulding techniques developed by us.
Mixed microplastics from a variety or origins , plastics recycling companies, textile manufacturers and launderers, manufacturers off-cuts and trims, by-products from PET "bottle to bottle" recyclers (labels, neck rims, powders and dusts not recyclable back to bottles), post consumer materials from MRF's, Agricultural films and large Rigid plastic mouldings all provide a wealth of raw materials otherwise destined for landfill or incineration (or the oceans) which can be used in this versatile and unique process.
With current significant changes to create more technical plastics packaging, including co extruded multi-layer plastics, un-recyclable by normal process and technology, PFM can without any doubt manage to directly recycle such materials into useful plastic panels. A range of sample structural and decorative panel ideas can be seen in the Gallery here, giving a small representative illustration of some possibilities.
