5 Extrusion International 5/2025 A traditional company is partly responsible for the previous peak in the seventies, as well as for the modern boom: Record Industry. To ensure that not a single gram of the precious PVC plastic is wasted, Record Industry recycles production waste directly on site using shredding technology fromWEIMA and Wanner When investing in an extrusion line, exibility in the manufacture of different products, maximum energy ef ciency, minimal personnel requirements, and minimal rawmaterial consumption are of crucial importance. One way to increase the productivity of the extrusion line is through double-strand extrusion The University of Utrecht has chosen a Coperion STS 25 Mc11 twin screw extruder for a chemical plastics recycling research project. A research group will undertake comprehensive investigations of the mechanicalchemical conversion of mixed plastic waste using catalysts Since 1957, Swiss-based manufacturer of industrial, non-contact measuring and control solutions, Zumbach Electronic, has worked tirelessly at providing exceptional customer service with their industry leading products and solutions. The Zumbach belief is that customers are more than just clients; they are part of their extended family Since the mid-1980s, Kündig Control Systems (KCS) has been supplying width and thickness measuring devices to the blown lm industry. KCS provides high speed online thickness measurements from the tube portion of the lm bubble. This is the cornerstone of achieving optimum thickness tolerances – also contributing to saving valuable raw materials and reducing waste From 8 to 15 October 2025 K in Düsseldorf/Germany will again become the main stage for the international plastics and rubber industry – making an unmistakable statement with its motto “The Power of Plastics! Green – Smart – Responsible”.
