Implosion Technology

Krysteline Technologies has developed innovative implosion technology totransform glass into small fragments. With the implosion system, a calibrated-speed rotor sends a shock wave to glass bottles or pieces.

This wave, which travels back and forth, causes instantaneous implosion ofthe glass without shredding the labels or capsules, which are therefore easierto sort and extract.This method reduces the maintenance costs and uses less energy thanconventional grinding processes. As an added benefit, the edges of thetreated glass are rounded, not sharp.

Fine glass : up to 99%Coarse glass: up to 95%
