Composite Carton Recycling

Tetra Pak Recycling Production Line

Hongxin Machinery provides equipment for recycling multilayer beverage cartons and compatible paper-based composite packaging. The production line separates the paper-fiber fraction from the laminated material and provides downstream handling for the recovered streams.

The three recovered products are paper pulp, aluminum-plastic foil, and separated PE plastic. The aluminum-plastic foil is a composite fraction; it is not pure recovered aluminum.

Suitable Feedstock

Packaging Materials We Process

Used and defective beverage cartons, milk and juice cartons, and compatible paper-based multilayer packaging. Certain cigarette-box packaging may also be evaluated based on its actual material structure.

Beverage Cartons

Milk, juice and other multilayer cartons suitable for material recovery.

Production Scrap

Offcuts, rejects and defective cartons from packaging operations.

Composite Packaging

Other compatible laminated paper packaging, subject to sample assessment.

Production Workflow

From Carton Waste to Recovered Materials

The production stages are configured to suit the feedstock and the required recovered products.

01
Feed Preparation

Sort and prepare cartons for the recycling process.

02
Fiber Separation

Release the paper fibers from the multilayer structure.

03
Material Handling

Screen and collect paper pulp and the remaining laminate fractions.

04
Product Recovery

Recover pulp, aluminum-plastic foil and separated PE as applicable to the line.

Final Products

Three Recovered Material Streams

Material presentation and downstream applications depend on feedstock quality and the selected line configuration.

Paper Pulp

Recovered paper fibers for suitable recycled-paper and molded-fiber applications after any required further processing.

Aluminum-Plastic Foil

A recovered aluminum-plastic laminate fraction, available for appropriate downstream composite-material processing.

Separated PE

Recovered polyethylene plastic that may undergo additional cleaning, drying or optional downstream processing.
