Monpet have added colour sorting technology to strengthen the operation. The state-of-the-art ‘Cimbria HY 4 Channel Colour Sorter’ was supplied and installed by All Controls Ltd of Cambridge to enhance the capabilities of the Monpet team.
Mixed PET colours can be separated into clear, lights and darks to broaden the recycling use of PET plastics in the industry. This added step in recycling will allow Monpet to carry out colour separation work for customers and increase clear PET feedstock for our own sheet extrusion process. In addition to sorting PET, plastic polymers of other type and grade can be sorted to provide a single stream of polymer for further use in the plastic manufacturing industry.
