An automotive component manufacturer generated approximately 25 tonnes of production waste per year. The waste consisted of plastic components containing steel inserts, metal end fittings, springs, and other metal parts. <\/p>\n

The primary objective was to reduce the volume of the waste and prepare it for efficient material recycling. The process needed to ensure: <\/p>\n
