Modern plastics recycling with EREMA ecoSAVE technology

The new ecoSAVE technology will help operators of EREMA plastics recycling systems to reduce their energy costs even further in future.

What makes this even more impressive is that thanks to their technological edge, the EREMA systems were already the most energy-efficient solutions on the market prior to this development. As the leading manufacturer of plastics recycling machines EREMA is aware of its pioneering role and will be equipping all recycling systems with the newly developed ecoSAVE technology in the future. 

For the customer, ecoSAVE means a reduction in production costs and further optimisation of energy consumption. EREMA, however, also sees ecoSAVE as a commitment to environmental protection and a contribution to lowering CO₂ emissions. For this reason the new technology will be a standard additional benefit for customers on all machines starting 2010 and at no additional cost. 

Besides the clear marking on the recycling machines, ecoSAVE is a whole package of measures in terms of design and process engineering. These measures include the use of high-quality energy-saving components, such as high-performance motors, for example. 

In practice this means potential savings of around 370,000 kWh and 230 tons of CO₂ reduction within seven years, based on an EREMA system with a production capacity of about 1,500 t/a working in 3 shifts (42,000 operating hours).
