Whether in the construction industry or in automobile building, in sports and leisure or in manufacturing furniture, for insulating or for sound-proofing, polyurethane has become an integral part of our everyday lives.
1 July 2021 will see Engel complete the generation change in the management of its sales and service subsidiary in Mumbai. Frank Schuster, Regional President METAI, takes over the management of Engel Machinery India Pvt. Ltd. Stalinjose Selvanayagam is the new Sales Director.
The new KHS sustainability report has been published under the title of Global responsibility – acting reliably and with foresight.
GEA Refrigeration Technologies, the GEA division specializing in industrial refrigeration, has joined the Cool Coalition led by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP).
The new coinjection process, which Engel has developed in cooperation with Top Grade Molds, enables high and completely encapsulated recycled material content in the production of pails and is thus superior to conventional processes for sandwich injection moulding.
With a new process, Engel makes it possible to process plastic waste as flakes in injection moulding directly after grinding. Since a complete process step, pelletising, is eliminated, the innovation significantly improves cost efficiency in plastics recycling.
At this year’s Anex-Since in Shanghai, China, Oerlikon Nonwoven will be showcasing market- and customer-oriented solutions for hygiene and medical, filtration and other industrial applications.
The injection moulding machine manufacturer has financed the collection of at least 120 tons of plastic waste in order to reclaim the recycling materials while at the same time contributing to the fight against poverty.
At the live e-symposium 2021, Engel is bridging the gap between two major trends of our time, digitalisation and sustainability.
The establishment of a Digital Solutions Sales Team sees the Engel Group bundle all sales activities for digital products and solutions from the inject 4.0 programme. Customers now have a central contact for all topics relating to the digitalisation of injection moulding production.
The BKG FlexDisc, an innovation by Nordson Corporation that significantly enhances melt filtration in the recycling of post-consumer PET, has been selected to be a finalist in the Plastics Recycling Awards Europe competition.
Shortly before the start of the live e-symposium 2021, event host Engel gives an optimistic outlook for the current fiscal year.
