Complete Recycling Solutions from Sorting to Re-Pelletizing
A Washing and Pelletizing Line is the complete recycling solution that transforms post-consumer and post-industrial plastic waste into clean, uniform, production-ready recycled pellets. By combining sorting, size reduction, metal removal, cold and hot washing, friction washing, density separation, dewatering, drying, and pelletizing into a single synchronized production flow, a modern washing line removes the dirt, adhesives, labels, sand, ink, and oil residues that would otherwise compromise pellet quality — delivering recycled material that meets the demanding standards of blown-film, injection-molding, pipe, and bottle manufacturing.
Torontech proudly presents the ToronAWS™ Series — a comprehensive line of washing and pelletizing systems engineered around a modular architecture that adapts to virtually any plastic waste stream. Five purpose-built configurations cover every major recycling application: the TT-AWS-HDPE for rigid HDPE/PP bottles, barrels, and household plastics (1,000–4,000 kg/h); the TT-AWS-PE for soft PE/LDPE/LLDPE film, PP woven bags, and flexible plastics; the TT-AWS-PET for clear and colored PET bottles destined for food-grade and fiber recycling; the TT-AWS-PP woven bag washing line for soft and flexible PP/PE scraps; and the dedicated Waste Appliances Washing & Recycling Machine engineered for end-of-life refrigerators and 10 categories of WEEE / e-waste. Every line is built with SUS304 stainless-steel construction in all wet-contact zones, heavy-duty feeding systems with load-controlled conveyors and optional metal detectors, friction washers with reinforced rotors, density-separation tanks, autonomous water-treatment systems, and final humidity below 1% — delivering pellet-grade output for any downstream extrusion or compounding line.
Close the Loop with Torontech
Every recycled pellet that leaves a high-performance washing-and-pelletizing line is a story of circular economy made real — virgin plastic that didn't have to be produced, waste that didn't have to go to landfill, and resources kept in productive use for another generation. But that promise is only delivered when the line itself is engineered for the dirt, contamination, and material variability of real-world plastic waste streams. The recyclers and manufacturers who consistently deliver clean, high-grade recycled pellets are the ones equipped with washing-and-pelletizing systems built for capacity, automation, and rigorous quality control — and the Torontech ToronAWS™ portfolio gives you exactly that.
Whether you are launching a new bottle-to-bottle PET facility, expanding an HDPE rigid-plastic recovery plant, processing agricultural film at industrial scale, or commissioning a state-of-the-art end-of-life appliance recycling line, Torontech has the washing-and-pelletizing platform engineered to meet your exact needs. From the dependable TT-AWS-HDPE to the comprehensive Waste Appliances Recycling Machine, every ToronAWS™ line is built to deliver world-class recycling performance backed by industry-leading service and support.

Why Choose Torontech for Your Washing & Pelletizing Needs
With more than two decades of experience supplying advanced industrial equipment to recyclers, manufacturers, and waste-management operators across more than 60 countries, Torontech delivers premium washing-and-pelletizing performance backed by global engineering and service expertise.
Five Purpose-Built Lines — One Trusted Source
From the rigid TT-AWS-HDPE to the soft TT-AWS-PE film line, the high-purity TT-AWS-PET bottle line, the TT-AWS-PP woven-bag platform, and the specialized Waste Appliances Recycling Machine — Torontech offers a coordinated portfolio that matches every plastic waste stream, contamination load, and pellet-quality requirement to a purpose-built ToronAWS solution.
Modular Architecture & Customization
Every ToronAWS line is built on a modular platform that adapts to local waste-stream composition, throughput targets, and downstream pellet-quality requirements. Standard modules can be combined and customized to deliver tailored solutions — sorting, crushing, magnetic separation, cold/hot washing, friction washing, density separation, dewatering, drying, and pelletizing — all integrated into a single synchronized production flow.
Premium Engineering & SUS304 Construction
All wet-contact components are constructed from SUS304 stainless steel with welded construction, ensuring excellent corrosion resistance and long service life. Friction washers feature reinforced mild-steel rotors with oversized externally-mounted bearings, 3 mm stainless steel screens, and stainless feed/discharge hoppers. Heavy-duty shredders include 35% larger cutting chambers with built-in hydraulic rams and enclosed cutting chambers for safety.
Intelligent Water Treatment & Automation
Autonomous water-treatment systems significantly reduce fresh-water consumption and discharge. Hot-water heating with 6-section and 3-section independent temperature control enables effective contaminant removal. Pneumatic water in-feed valves, electronic level sensors, ABB/Schneider inverter-controlled conveyors, optional permanent-magnet metal-detection belts, and full-line PLC integration deliver consistent automated operation.
Industry-Leading Safety Architecture
The Waste Appliances line includes a cyclopentane alarm system, dust-removal system, and fire-protection system — critical safeguards when processing refrigerators containing flammable refrigerants. All ToronAWS lines incorporate enclosed cutting chambers, load-related overfeed prevention, optional metal detection, and emergency-stop architecture meeting international workplace safety standards.
