What’s the plastic PET bottle recycling process?

Collection

Firstly, you should collect enough wast plastic bottles to start your plastic recycling business.

Bale breaking(optional)

If your raw materials are PET bottle bales, then you need to open them first. This facilitates the subsequent de-labeling work.

In this step, a bale breaker is required. Generally, this machine is equipped when the capacity of the PET bottle recycling plant reaches 1t/h.
