Pilamec is proud to be at the forefront of recycling and reuse initiatives, empowering our customers to reduce their carbon footprint and embrace the circular economy. We believe this is not just important work but essential for the future of our planet.
Our milling and size reduction expertise plays a crucial role in this mission. We collaborate with various sectors, from universities to multinational corporations, participating in diverse projects’ R&D and production stages. We help our partners transform what were once considered waste materials into valuable raw materials. These recovered materials are then reintroduced into existing processes or used to create innovative new products.
Across various industries, including aggregates, chemicals, ceramics, metals, construction and glass manufacturing, to name but a few, Pilamec has made a significant impact:
- Reduced CO2 emissions: By diverting waste from landfills and utilising recycled materials, we have helped our customers significantly decrease their carbon footprint.
- Promoted resource efficiency: Our size reduction and processing techniques allow for maximising material utilisation and minimising waste generation.
- Developed innovative solutions: We work closely with our partners to develop customisable solutions that meet their needs for reusing and incorporating recycled materials.
- New and recycled product blending. Recycled materials can be blended with other recycled or new products, thus reducing the reliance on all new and costly prime products.
Here are some specific examples of our work:
- We partnered with a research institute and end user to allow them to reuse materials lost during processing back into their production line, resulting in a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions.
- We collaborated with a university research team to develop a process for crushing and reusing reclaimed materials in construction materials, reducing landfill waste, and creating a more sustainable building solution.
- We helped a ceramics company reclaim otherwise scrapped products and turn them into valuable feedstock for new products, minimising their use of virgin materials.
Pilamec is committed to playing a leading role in building a more sustainable future. We invite you to join us on this journey by exploring how our expertise in material reuse can help your business reduce its environmental impact and thrive in the circular economy.
