The Recostar PET 165 HC iV+ has an output of up to 1,800 kg of bottle-grade rPET pellets per hour and will recycle PET bottles from post-consumer collection. The produced rPET resin, which is 100% food-contact approved, will be sold under the brand name “GSR GRANULES” and be used for PET bottle production, creating a closed loop for PET bottles.
The commissioning of the line is scheduled for mid of February 2023. With the new Starlinger recycling line, Akmert is expanding its product portfolio by supplying rPET pellets in addition to PET flakes.
“We consider recycling the business of the future, that’s why we have directed our investments towards rPET”, said Kasım Aksoy, owner of Akmert. “We opted for Starlinger technology because we believe in quality from the start. There is no other technology we would rather use than Starlinger, as we aim to belong among the top players in the industry.”
With a monthly capacity of 1,200 tons of rPET flakes, marketed under the brand name “Sena PET”, Akmert is one of the biggest suppliers of rPET flakes in Turkey. State-of-the-art sorting and cleansing technologies ensure top product quality that meets the requirements of the PET sheet producers the company supplies to.
