Wood waste comes in different shapes and sizes, from small end cuts to rippings or skeletons. WEIMA offers an extensive line of grinders for wood waste, including hardwood, softwood, particleboard, plywood, MDF scrap, bulky furniture pieces, window profiles, doors and stairs. WEIMA’s single-shaft grinders can process a variety of wood waste and are beneficial for the small carpentry or cabinet shops to large millwork operations, lumber yards, furniture makers and sawmills. Whatever your wood application, WEIMA has a machine that can save your company on waste disposal costs and decrease your environmental footprint. Dust problem? No problem! WEIMA has been helping companies turn loose materials, such as dust and shavings, into profits for decades. By compressing these materials into briquettes, operations can decrease disposal costs while reducing mess and increasing safety. WEIMA briquette presses compress dust without using binding agents, creating a clean, recyclable product and significant savings on space and time. These low-maintenance, environmentally friendly machines can be efficiently integrated into your existing production line with minimal down time. Get your dust problem under control with a WEIMA briquette press. Destroy Responsibly(TM) with WEIMA! | Welcome to the world of shredding and compressing – welcome to WEIMA!

For more than 40 years our global operation has been focused on the art of size reduction. We have delivered around 40,000 machines worldwide, including industrial shredders, briquette presses, and drainage presses. As the world innovates, so do we. Destroy Responsibly with WEIMA! | WEIMA offers size reduction machinery for the waste-to-energy market that can be integrated into RDF lines for reliable pre-shredding or secondary shredding. These robust rotors can process a variety of input materials while resisting foreign objects that are often found in waste streams. Shredding is the first step in using waste materials as an alternative fuel source or as feedstock in advanced recycling processes. With expertise in system design and 40+ years of experience, WEIMA empowers businesses to achieve their recycling goals effectively and efficiently with customized solutions in mind. Destroy Responsibly™ with WEIMA! | HOW DO YOU DESTROY? For 40 years, WEIMA has been successfully established as a supplier of reliable shredding, grinding and briquetting technology to the wood industry. Our shredders can process all kinds of wood waste, including hard-wood, softwood, particleboard, plywood and MDF scrap as well as bulky pieces of furniture, window profiles, doors and stairs. Once shredded, waste can be transported off-site or briquetted using a WEIMA briquette press. Our flexible manufacturing methods mean we are able to provide turnkey solutions for many different applications. The quality of the materials and the careful method of processing ensures an exceptionally durable machine when put into operation. We define the standards for size reduction within the wood industry, and we want to help you turn your wood waste into profit. | Destroy Responsibly! (TM) — As an Official Recycler of NPE2024, WEIMA wants to empower companies to consider in-plant size reduction and recycling. The Recycling Zone behind West Hall will feature a WEIMA shredder and two granulators in operation. Attendees are invited to view the machinery inaction. WEIMA’s goal (in conjunction with Commercial Plastics Recycling, Inc., Conair, PLASTICS, and Freeman Co.) is to recycle 100% of the plastic scrap that is generated on the show floor at NPE2024. WEIMA’s robust line of shredders can handle plastic materials including pipe, purge, sprues/runners, film, fibers, bottles, crates/bins, nonwovens and more. Our single-shaft shredders are ideal for shredding scrap prior to a granulator or repelletizing line. Large hoppers allow for bulk feeding without the need to pre-cut materials. When consistent piece sizes are fed into a granulator, it regulates material flow while eliminating spikes in power. This helps to lower energy costs. WEIMA shredders can be customized to meet the demands of specific applications. With the range of equipment and a variety of rotor types, rotor geometries and cutting tools, we can handle such plastics as PE, PP, PVC, PS, PU and PET among others. The V-Rotor is designed for the shredding of hard plastics, while the F-Rotor is for woven and non-woven film and fiber materials. Other optional features include a lift-up door for easy maintenance, multiple knife configurations, custom hoppers, a variety of rotor widths, and more. When it comes to industrial plastic shredders, one size does not fit all. We want you to benefit from our 40 years of experience! | WEIMA offers a variety of industrial machinery to recycle packaging where it’s produced!WEIMA shredders and compression machinery offer packaging manufacturers full control over how their scrap is recycled or reintegrated. With over 40 years in the recycling industry, WEIMA is no stranger to the plastics, paper, corrugate, aluminum, and canning sectors. What do these industries have in common? All these packaging materials are necessary for transporting various products effectively, and all of them create waste streams with unique requirements for recycling.Industrial shredders from WEIMA are easily integrated into production lines, making size reduction a manageable process for all packaging manufacturers. These shredders are ideal for the paper and corrugated industries, as well as for processing plastic film packaging and hard plastic scrap. With a variety of rotor widths and cutting geometries, WEIMA knows what it takes to effectively size reduce specific waste streams with ease.Whether empty and dry or filled and wet – WEIMA has the right pressing solution for recycling packaging waste. With hydraulic drainage presses, all common packaging and containers can be drained and compacted. These include soft packaging, plastic bags, tinplate or aluminum cans, foil-wrapped cardboard, plastic cups, plastic bottles and mixed food waste.Packaging that is no longer usable is occasionally still filled with fluids. These filled items, require proper separation, if only for reasons of volume reduction and cost-effective disposal. Due to their complete stainless-steel construction, they are appreciated not only by breweries, dairies, soft drink producers and bottling plants, but also by operators of biogas plants, plastic processors and food manufacturers.No matter the type of packaging you manufacture, WEIMA wants to help your operation Destroy Responsibly™! | WEIMA offers a variety of in-plant industrial machinery to recycle packaging where it’s produced!WEIMA shredders and compression machinery offer packaging manufacturers full control over how their scrap is recycled or reintegrated.
