Engineered systems for processing post-consumer carpet, separating reusable materials, and supporting compliance with evolving recycling regulations.
Carpet is one of the most challenging post-consumer waste streams to recycle. Made from layered composites of fibers, adhesives, and mineral-filled backing, used carpet has historically been landfilled due to its bulk, complexity, and processing difficulty.
Today, that’s changing. New state-level regulations, manufacturer recycled-content requirements, and rising disposal costs are driving increased demand for effective carpet recycling solutions. At the center of these solutions is size reduction—the critical first step that enables material separation, recovery, and reuse.
شوٹ ہیمرمِل ایسے مصدقہ سائز کمی کے نظام فراہم کرتا ہے جو خاص طور پر استعمال شدہ قالین کو پروسیس کرنے اور اس کو بعد میں ری سائیکلنگ اور درجہ بندی کے لیے تیار کرنے کے لیے ڈیزائن کیے گئے ہیں.
قالین کی ری سائیکلنگ کیوں بڑھ رہی ہے
گزشتہ چند برسوں میں, متعدد امریکی. ریاستوں نے قالین کے ضیاع کو کم کرنے اور نئے قالین کی تیاری میں ری سائیکل شدہ مواد کے استعمال کو بڑھانے کے لیے قواعد و ضوابط متعارف کرائے یا ان میں اضافہ کیا ہے. یہ اقدامات پیداواری ذمہ داری کے مفروضے کی وسیع تر کوشش کا حصہ ہیں (EPR), shifting more end-of-life accountability to manufacturers and suppliers.
Key regulatory trends include:
- Minimum post-consumer recycled (PCR) content requirements in new carpet products
- Restrictions on certain backing materials and additives
- Increased diversion targets to reduce landfill disposal
While requirements vary by state, the direction is clear: carpet must be recyclable at scale. This shift is accelerating investment in processing technologies capable of handling post-consumer carpet efficiently and economically.

قالین کی ری سائیکلنگ میں سائز کمی کا کردار
Size reduction is the foundational step in carpet recycling. By breaking down bulky rolls, tiles, and slabs into smaller, manageable particles, size reduction enables:
- Liberation of fibers from mineral-filled backing systems
- Reduction of material volume for efficient handling and transport
- Preparation of material for downstream separation technologies
Without proper size reduction, carpet materials remain too entangled and inconsistent for effective recovery.

Many carpet backing systems contain high levels of calcium carbonate filler. While essential for carpet performance, this mineral content complicates recycling by contaminating fiber streams.
Schutte Hammermill size reduction systems are engineered to:
- Break down backing systems effectively
- Release calcium carbonate from polymer fibers
- Produce material suitable for air classification and separation
This process allows recyclers to recover cleaner polymer fractions while isolating mineral-heavy fines into separate output streams.
