Textile waste, comprising production scraps and post-consumer items like discarded garments and household textiles, representing a resource potential that may have been underestimated. Currently, a low recycling rate exacerbates landfill pollution and resource waste. To enable sustainable recycling or energy conversion, effective initial processing is essential. Shredding and sorting serve as the critical steps, breaking down tough material for efficient downstream separation and recovery, thus transforming waste into valuable resources and supporting a circular economy.

Our common mechanical recycling line for textile waste typically follows a multi-stage process. First, a belt conveyor feeds the material uniformly into a robust double-shaft shredder, which employs shear and tear forces to perform coarse primary size reduction. Subsequently, a magnetic separator suspended over the conveyor removes ferrous metals. The pre-shredded textiles are then transferred to a single-shaft fine shredder for further refinement to achieve the desired particle size. Finally, the processed output can be compacted by a hydraulic baler for storage/transport or directed to an RDF pellet mill for energy recovery.
