Plastic Shredder Product Introduction

Model Series: 600, 800, 1200
Core Function:
Plastic shredders use high-speed rotating blades to break waste plastics into granular or flake materials, facilitating subsequent cleaning, melting, and recycling. The equipment processes daily consumer plastics (e.g., bottles, films, toys) and industrial waste (e.g., pipes, sheets), achieving "reduction, resource recovery, and pollution control" goals.

Why Choose a Plastic Shredder?

1. Environmental Needs

   • Over 300 million tons of plastic waste are generated globally each year. Traditional landfill or incineration methods cause soil pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and microplastic dispersion.

   • Shredded plastic particles can be reused to manufacture daily products, building materials, etc., reducing virgin plastic production (each ton of recycled plastic cuts 1.5 tons of carbon emissions).

2. Policy Drivers

   • China’s 14th Five-Year Plan for Circular Economy mandates a basic plastic pollution control system by 2025, enforcing waste classification and recycling.

   • The EU’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation requires 30%-35% recycled content in plastic packaging by 2030, driving demand for recycled granules.

3. Economic Benefits

   • Recycled plastics cost 30%-50% less than virgin plastics. Shredders help businesses reduce raw material costs and boost profit margins.

Processable Plastic Types

Note: This series supports mixed plastics (e.g., landfill waste) with optimized blades to reduce sorting costs.

Global Plastic Recycling Policies & Trends

1. China

   • Implements "Plastic Ban Policy," prohibiting ultra-thin plastic bags and enforcing waste classification. Pilot projects in Shanghai/Shenzhen promote professional plastic recycling.

   • 2025 Target: Key industries (construction, appliances) must use ≥5% recycled materials.

2. EU

   • By 2030, PET bottles must contain ≥30% recycled content; other packaging ≥35%.

   • Germany’s "Deposit System" achieves >98% plastic bottle recycling.

3. USA

   • California and New York restrict single-use plastics and subsidize chemical recycling technologies.

4. Developing Countries

   • India and Thailand tighten imported plastic waste controls while promoting domestic recycling systems.

Hazards of Plastic Waste

1. Environmental Damage

   • Ocean pollution: 85% of marine debris is plastic, threatening marine life and entering human food chains.

   • Soil degradation: Landfilled plastics release toxins, harming crop growth.

2. Health Risks

   • Microplastic Invasion: Microplastics detected in human brains/livers (4,800 µg per gram of brain tissue), linked to inflammation and Parkinson’s disease risks.

   • Chemical Toxicity: Phthalates and BPA in plastics disrupt endocrine systems, affecting reproductive health.

3. Economic Loss

   • Global plastic pollution costs ~$13 billion annually (tourism/fisheries losses).
