Andritz has received an order from Krones to supply six ADuro S shredders for a shredding and washing plant for polypropylene (PP) recycling in the Southeast United States.
The shredders will be installed in two lines. Start-up of the first line will take place in 2024.
The shredders provide a dry shredding solution resulting in less fines, extended wear parts lifetime and thus lower costs compared to the classic wet milling solution typically used in such applications. ADuro S shredders will be used to shred the material to less than 15 mm particle size.
