ZIPPE glass recycling – Economy through sustainability
The conversion of internal waste into remeltable cullet – our recycling plants are designed for this task. This is our contribution to the protection of the environment and the reclamation of energy and raw materials.
Scraper conveyors
Single or double strand scraper conveyors and individual wear-resistant cladding to trough bases are “made to measure“ to suit the customer’s specific requirements. Their length depends on the discharge points of hot waste glass.
Cooling water treatment is offered as an option.
Float crushers
The manufacture of flat glass generates rejected sheets of glass; these can be reliably crushed using ZIPPE float crushers. The granulometry of the glass can be flexibly adjusted within wide limits. In addition, the crushers incur only very limited wear, require minimum maintenance and are distinguished by minimal energy consumption.
Edge crushers
Trimmings (edges) are continuously generated during the manufacture of flat glass. ZIPPE’s special crushers break up this waste reliably so that it can be subsequently reintroduced into the production process. The granulometry of the glass can be flexibly adjusted within wide limits. In addition, the crushers incur only very limited wear, require minimum maintenance and a distinguished by minimal energy consumption.
BRV-type crushers
The ZIPPE type BRV hammer crusher is ideally suited for breaking hollow glass and broken flat. It is characterised by an economical consumption of energy and low operating costs as it is subject to only limited wear. Hammers and impact bars are particularly simple and the crusher is efficient in its energy consumption.
The purpose of waste glass processing plants is to convert externally collected waste glass into remeltable cullet which complies with the purity and grain size specifications of the glass industry. We design, supply and build complete waste glass processing plants. These including sorting technology (CSP, all metal, colour sorting), crushing technology and screening technology.

Roller crushers
Roller crushers which are properly designed to suit the requirements placed on them (e.g. with several pairs of rolls) are used for the preliminary crushing of glass waste. The waste can then be safely conveyed to the final crushing stage.
Zipper offers suitable complete solutions for processing special waste glasses, for example fibre glass, laminated glass and wired glass. Our extensive and in-depth store of knowledge and experience is at your disposal. Contact us.
