The industrial recycling systems from REI are engineered to process dense, oversized, and difficult plastic waste streams with consistent throughput and long-term durability. Built for purgings, HDPE / PVC pipe, containers, film, and all types of plastic flexible packaging, our shredders, PVC pipe shears and size-reduction solutions convert bulky plastic material into manageable flakes or shreds for reprocessing, transport, or reuse. Ideal for manufacturing facilities, plastics processors, packaging plants, and distribution environments, REI systems help reduce disposal costs, optimize storage space, and improve downstream material value.
REI’s plastic shredders and recycling equipment are designed to handle a wide variety of hard, thick, and flexible plastics produced across manufacturing and packaging operations. High-torque drives, abrasion-resistant steels, and reinforced cutting assemblies ensure dependable performance when processing dense purgings, long HDPE pipe sections, rigid containers, and lightweight films.
With rugged construction and low-maintenance operation, these plastic recycling systems deliver reliable material reduction for regrind, reclaim, and recycling applications.
The new REI-ZR Pipe Shear is designed to shear large volumes of HDPE and PVC pipe, including oversized pipe up to 60 inches in diameter. Built in North Carolina for demanding recycling environments, this heavy-duty system reduces bulky pipe into manageable sections for more efficient handling, transportation and downstream processing.
Each pipe shear system can be engineered around the customer’s material stream, facility layout and production requirements.
The systems below form the foundation of our custom plastic and PVC recycling lines. Working together, they handle conveying, size reduction, baling, and roll processing so lightweight films, rigid plastics, and PVC profiles move smoothly through your plant, are reduced to the proper size, and are packaged for resale or re-use with less labor and lower handling costs.
If you generate loose aluminum trim or light metal scrap, vertical balers help you get it under control. They compress scattered material into tight, manageable bales that free up floor space and make transport far more efficient.
For operations dealing with a steady flow of metal scrap, horizontal balers provide the throughput you need. They create consistent, high-density bales with minimal operator involvement.
Transport lightweight plastic trim, film scraps, and offcuts efficiently from production areas to your recycling equipment with minimal manual effort.
Slice through rolled plastics, PVC sheets, long HDPE pipe, and oversized materials cleanly to prepare them for further size reduction and recovery.
