VacuFil^® - from waste to value

VacuFil^® is a unique and innovative PET recycling line, uniting gentle large-scale filtration and controlled intrinsic-viscosity build-up for consistently outstanding melt quality. The vacuum unit – located next to the filter – quickly and reliably removes volatile contamination. The excellent degassing performance additionally relieves energy-intensive predrying.

The modular structure of the VacuFil^® range offers numerous possibilities for the process guiding system. Whether as a standalone solution with downstream granulation or as an inline version including 3DD additive feed – customer requirements can be optimally catered for with customised system configurations.
