Description

In March 2026 IFE (machinery / separation-technology company) physically processed used artificial-turf infill from several Big Bags in its technical centre: screening, then density separation of rubber granulate from sand. The cleaned granulate could be reused as infill (reuse, not material recycling). Project-specific / demonstration case — annual capacity and throughput UNKNOWN; not counted as a commercial recycler.

Where does the material actually end up?

CTE Data noteCircular Turf Europe follows the material from input to final destination.

Inputs

used artificial-turf infill (rubber granulate + sand, with fibres and contaminants), several Big Bags

Processes

linear vibrating screen (removal of fibres, leaves, branches, contaminants), IFE SORT density separation (vibration + air flow): rubber granulate / sand

Outputs

cleaned rubber granulate (municipal source); separated sand (municipal source)

Final material destinations

cleaned rubber granulate → suitable for direct reuse as artificial-turf infill (REUSE — not material recycling)
