Individual material development
Melos has over 80 years of experience in the plastics industry. Our engineers welcome any challenge: whether to develop a material in close cooperation with the customer or to manufacture one that has already been precisely specified.
Our aim is always to fulfill the customer’s requirements precisely:
 |
tailored to process requirements at the customer's production plant |
|
tailored to material requirements for the end product |
Flexible manufacturing process
We manufacture recyclates from agglomerate or regrind in a modern twin-screw extruder plant equipped with melt filters and underwater granulation. Our production process, with four gravimetric feeder scales provides the flexibility to add a wide variety of additives – such as pigments (masterbatches), fillers, reinforcing agents and modifiers.
The ability to process various source materials, ensures the precise achievement of desired material properties.
Reproducible, individual and consistently high-quality
Melos manufactures customized regranulates with reproductible material properties and consistently high material quality.
The material propertys could be individually customized:
Our flexible production technology enables regranulates to be used for a wide range of products.
Recyclate – what is it?
We use the term ‘recyclates’ to describe materials and objects that wholly or partly consist of materials derived from a recycling process, i.e. reprocessed waste material.
Regranulate is a subcategory of recyclate and refers to the material’s physical form. In other words, regranulate is granular recyclate.
What forms of recyclates does Melos use?
The materials processed by Melos GmbH include agglomerates, regrinds and the like, made from waste plastics from Germany’s major recycling company Duales System Deutschland. These base materials are used to manufacture regranulates that can be used for a wide variety of processes and applications.
Which plastics does Melos manufacture from recyclates?
The possibilities include PP (polypropylene), PO (polyolefin blends) and HDPE (high-density polyethylene).
