Erema North America, Inc: RPET sheet extrusion

An in-line system that produces RPET sheet from ground bottle stock is available from Erema North America (Topsfield, MA). The patented system feeds scrap into a vertical densifying unit that uses friction to compress, preheat and dry the plastic, which is then extruded, compressed and melted gradually.
