Description
ClassificationACTIVE PLASTICS PART-STREAM PROCESSOR — WASHING / GRINDING / DENSIFICATION
ACTIVE PART-STREAM / PLASTICS RECYCLER — not a specialist full-field artificial-turf recycling plant. Company information: this site operates washing lines, densification and grinding.

No public artificial-turf-specific capacity, verified turf throughput or final-destination tonnage identified.
