- entanglement and unstable feeding.
Recycling Challenges
Why Nonwoven & Fiber Waste Requires a Specialized Recycling Process
The line has to remove contamination while keeping nonwoven & fiber moving steadily through washing, dewatering and drying.
-
01 Very Low Bulk Density
Loose fibre and nonwoven occupy extreme volume and need densification.
-
02 Entanglement
Fibre wraps around rotating parts unless feeding is controlled.
-
03 Unstable Feeding
Feed rate fluctuates and disturbs extrusion stability.
-
04 Limited Contamination
This stream is usually clean, so the route focuses on densification rather than washing.
Output Routes
Choose the Output for Your Recycling Project
-
Route A Clean Nonwoven & Fiber 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 nonwoven & fiber 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 Nonwoven & Fiber Recyclers Usually Ask
Does nonwoven waste need washing?
Usually not. Most fibre and nonwoven production waste is clean, so the route focuses on densification and pelletizing.
Why is compaction necessary?
Compaction raises bulk density so the material can be fed into the extruder at a stable rate.
Can offcuts be processed directly?
They normally need size reduction before densification to keep the feed consistent.
What should I send before quotation?
Fibre or nonwoven type, offcut size, contamination level, required capacity and target output.
