Recycling Challenges
Why Agricultural Film Requires a Specialized Recycling Process
The line has to remove contamination while keeping agricultural film moving steadily through washing, dewatering and drying.
-
01 Soil & Sand
Progressive removal reduces wear and stabilizes washing load.
-
02 Moisture & Residue
Water, organic matter and seasonal variation shape drying demand.
-
03 Film Entanglement
Flexible film needs controlled feeding and anti-bridging design.
-
04 Variable Feedstock
Configuration changes with source, contamination and target output.
Output Routes
Choose the Output for Your Recycling Project
-
Route A Clean Agricultural Film Flakes
Washed and dried flakes for in-house processing, separate pelletizing or sale as prepared recycled material.
- Size reduction and washing
- Separation and dewatering
- Drying to a stable flake condition
-
Route B Recycled Pellets
A continuous route from contaminated agricultural film to filtered recycled pellets for suitable downstream applications.
- Washing line matched with extrusion
- Degassing and melt filtration
- Pellet cooling, storage and handling
Output specification depends on the incoming material and the target application.

FAQ
Questions Agricultural Film Recyclers Usually Ask
Can the line handle film with heavy soil?
Yes. Pre-treatment and multi-stage washing are configured around the soil and sand load in your material.
Should I choose flakes or pellets?
Flakes suit in-house processing or separate pelletizing. Pellets suit customers who need a consistent, filtered end product.
Can Retech configure the line around local utilities?
Yes. Water, power, space and labour conditions are part of the configuration review.
What should I send before quotation?
Material form and source, contamination level, required capacity and target output.
