Every kilogram of our pelletized product begins its journey with a commitment to quality and environmental responsibility. While the source material changes slightly, our meticulous process remains consistently thorough throughout the process to deliver 95% consistency:<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    Manual Pre-Sorting & Bale Breaking:<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0We begin by manually breaking down post-consumer bales and removing any foreign materials, ensuring a pure feedstock.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Crushing & Washing:<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0The material is then crushed into uniform flakes and subjected to a lengthy, vigorous, and entirely environmentally friendly washing process to remove all contaminants.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Spin-Drying & Quality Screening:<\/span><\/strong> The clean, washed flakes are spin-dried and then processed through an advanced three-stage technology, automatically screened through precision 12\/72 Hollander woven screens for impeccable consistency.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Pelletizing & Drying:<\/span><\/strong> The material is transformed into uniform, rice- and disc-like granules via spaghetti or die-face cutting. It is then blown into a drying tank to achieve the perfect normally zero moisture content.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Export-Ready Packaging:<\/span><\/strong> The finished pellets are decanted into brand new hessian bags (25kg packed), tightly stitched, and palletised onto new wooden pallets (1500kg). Each pallet is securely wrapped and stored in a dry, secure warehouse, ready for shipping. A 20ft container holds 1004 bags loaded loose (25 tonnes).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
