The IR-CLEAN® system from KREYENBORG revolutionises the processing of rPET for food packaging. This innovative technology offers an efficient and cost-effective solution for the use of post-consumer PET flakes, without the use of vacuum technology.
r-PET Decontamination Food Grade
For packaging with direct food contact
Recycling and the circular economy are highly topical topics for both end consumers and legislators, while plastic packaging and wrappers are viewed critically in the food industry. This makes it all the more important that plastic packaging can be reused. We make a contribution to this with our systems.
It is also suitable as a retrofit solution for existing extrusion lines. The cleaning efficiency of the IR-CLEAN® system has been confirmed by a Letter of Non-Objection from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and meets the requirements of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) for the use of recycled material with direct food contact. The system contributes to the circular economy and provides an answer to the challenges in the plastic packaging industry.
Another significant advantage of IR-CLEAN® technology is the significant reduction in viscosity loss (iV) due to efficient drying, which is particularly advantageous when using twin-screw extruders.
