Polymer processing film blowing recycling
 
Project description

The application is for a film blowing die and take-up unit, that can be coupled to an existing extruder. This new equipment will allow us to expand research on polymer processing, plastics recycling and resource efficiency to film applications, a major packaging segment that is currently a blind spot in this field.
