For sectors such as the beverage, food and plastics industries, WEIMA offers customized solutions to significantly reduce the volume of waste and lower disposal costs. In this way, the presses contribute to economical and environmentally friendly waste management.
This series contains label presses, can presses, recycling and packaging presses, and chip presses
WEIMA offers customized compaction solutions for the efficient disposal of packaging and production waste, whether dry, empty or filled and wet. Whether cans, plastic bottles or tubular bags – our machines reduce the volume and lower storage and disposal costs. Thanks to the use of stainless steel, WEIMA drainage presses are particularly durable and hygienic and are valued by breweries, dairies, soft drink manufacturers and bottling plants as well as biogas plant operators, food manufacturers and plastics processors.
By using a hydraulic cylinder instead of a screw conveyor, WEIMA offers a low-wear solution with minimal maintenance requirements – ideal for companies that focus on long-term efficiency. The acquisition of the draingage specialist PÜHLER has strengthened WEIMA’s expertise in the field of compaction. With over 40 years of experience and more than 6,000 machines sold, PÜHLER presses are used worldwide for emptying and recycling packaging and labels in the food and beverage industry.
WEIMA provides you with an integrated disposal solution that empties packaging, separates and compacts materials – all in one step. The compacted materials are recyclable and sustainably reduce disposal costs. Whether plastic, metal or production waste – WEIMA’s 3-in-1 solution optimizes your waste stream and ensures maximum efficiency.
Specially developed for hygiene-critical applications, WEIMA machines meet the highest hygiene standards and are HACCP-compliant. Stainless steel, an automatic cleaning system and food-grade oils make the machines the first choice for areas with strict cleanliness requirements, such as food and beverage production. Thanks to their full stainless steel construction, they are not only appreciated in breweries, dairies, soft drink bottling plants and other food production facilities, but also in biogas plants, plastics processors and general food production.
WEIMA presses are designed for maximum flexibility and can be seamlessly integrated into existing production lines. With plug-and-play functionality and modern data interfaces, they can be controlled fully automatically and monitor themselves autonomously. WEIMA also offers complete system solutions for recycling, such as shredders and granulators, and makes your waste disposal future-proof.
If the reject material is not suitable for further recycling for hygienic or quality reasons, it does not necessarily have to end up unused in waste. Rejects are often suitable as an energy source (incineration or fermentation) or even as fertilizer or feed on farms.
Depending on the application and objective, additional production steps such as crushing, granulating, washing or briquetting may be required before or after dewatering. WEIMA offers the right machine technology that is ideally suited to your production requirements – all from a single source for seamless integration and maximum process quality.
Numerous leading companies rely on WEIMA’s reliable dewatering and compaction solutions. Long-standing customers such as Oettinger, Rothaus, Emmi, Blankenburger, KHS, Krones and more benefit from our customized machines for efficient and sustainable waste recycling.
