Plastic recycling line projects SUHUI has engineered, built and shipped to customers across Europe, Asia and Oceania, covering washing, pelletizing and complete recycling lines. Each entry lists country, material, machine and achieved capacity, so you can find plastic recycling line projects comparable to your own before requesting a quotation.
Each plastic pelletizing line case study below was configured around a specific polymer, feed condition and target output — some fed from a PP PE film washing line, others running clean in-house scrap direct to pelletizing. Two configurations come up most often in enquiries that follow these projects: the film compacting pelletizing line for washed or edge-trim film, and the PVC granulating pelletizing line for pipe and profile plants recovering their own PVC scrap. For confidentiality we publish the country, material, machine type and capacity rather than customer names. Looking for something similar?

VietnamA single-screw pelletizing line configured for continuous masterbatch production, with strand-bath cooling and consistent pellet cut for a Southeast Asian compounding plant.
ItalyA compacting pelletizing line reprocessing PP film edge-trim and post-industrial film into uniform, reusable pellets at a stable 300 kg/h for a European plastics processor.
AustraliaA high-capacity line densifying and pelletizing expanded polystyrene foam into recycled pellets at 1,000 kg/h for a national recycling operation.
AustraliaA pelletizing line with drying and degassing configured for polycarbonate flakes, protecting melt quality to deliver clean engineering-grade pellets.
GermanyA pelletizing line for washed HDPE bottle flakes, delivering consistent recycled pellets at 500 kg/h for a European recycling and waste-processing group.
Czech RepublicA sorting, conveying and size-reduction recycling line handling mixed plastic scrap at 1,000 kg/h, prepared for downstream washing and pelletizing.
Every project above started the same way — with a material sample and a target output, not a catalogue number. These are the three questions we work through before any plastic recycling line is quoted.
PET bottles, HDPE milk bottles, PP film, EPS foam and PC flakes all behave differently once they reach a shredder. Polymer type, bulk density, moisture and contamination decide whether the line needs sorting, a washing line, a squeezer, or can feed a pelletizing line directly. Clean in-house scrap such as the PP film edge-trim in the Italian project goes straight to compacting pelletizing; post-consumer bottles like the German HDPE project need washing first.
Target kg/h sets extruder size, screw diameter, washing tank volume and dryer capacity across the whole line at once. The projects on this page run between 300 and 1,000 kg/h. Oversizing one stage and undersizing the next is the most common reason a plastic recycling line never reaches its rated output, so we balance every stage to the same throughput rather than quoting machines individually.
Clean flakes, recycled pellets and finished product each demand a different end of the line. Selling washed flakes stops at drying; selling pellets adds melt filtration and a pelletizing line; selling pipe or profile continues into extrusion. Deciding the saleable output first is what keeps the specification honest.
Working out which side you need first? Start from the plastic recycling machine guide if you sell flakes or pellets, or the plastic extrusion line guide if you sell a finished product.
The material and the country change from project to project. The way SUHUI builds and hands over the line does not.
Every line on this page was manufactured in the SUHUI workshop in Zhangjiagang — we are a factory-direct plastic pelletizing line manufacturer, not a trading company reselling other people's machines. Shredders, washing line tanks, extruders and pelletizers are made and fitted by the same engineering team that specified them.
Lines are fully assembled and trial-run in the workshop before they are crated. Where the customer can supply material, we run their own scrap through the line and confirm output quality against the agreed specification, so commissioning on site is a repeat of a test that already passed.
Our engineers travel to install, commission and bring the line up to rated output, then train the operators who will run it daily. That is how a plant in Germany, Australia or Vietnam reaches stable production without a resident specialist.
Wear parts — screws, screens, blades, cutters and heaters — stay available for the life of the line, with remote technical support for process adjustments when the feedstock changes.
Yes. Tell us the polymer, the form it arrives in and the output you need, and we will point you to the delivered project closest to your case, including line layout, machine list and achieved output. Where the customer has agreed to it, we can also arrange a direct reference call.
Most recyclers and compounders treat their line configuration as commercially sensitive, so we publish projects by country, material, machine type and capacity only. The technical details you need to judge whether a line suits you are all here; the customer identity is shared privately once they have approved it.
The projects shown run between 300 and 1,000 kg/h — 300 kg/h for the PP film and PC flakes pelletizing lines, 500 kg/h for the masterbatch and HDPE bottle lines, and 1,000 kg/h for the EPS pelletizing and mixed-plastic sorting lines. Across our wider range we configure lines from around 100 kg/h upwards.
Usually yes, but not by simply relabelling it. Changing polymer can mean different screw geometry, screen configuration, wash-tank residence time or drying capacity; raising output changes machine sizes across every stage. We re-scope the line around the new material and throughput rather than uprating a single machine.
SUHUI lines run in more than 50 countries, including the European, Southeast Asian and Oceanian projects shown here. Tell us your location and we will confirm what has been delivered nearby and what that means for shipping, voltage and on-site commissioning.
Send us the plastic you run and the output you want to produce. A SUHUI engineer will map a line configuration and budget range based on projects like these.
