🥚 Bio-Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃) from Eggshells

Bio-calcium carbonate, derived from recycled eggshells, is an innovative and sustainable filler for plastics. It replaces traditional mineral additives like limestone and enables a significant reduction in plastic content and CO₂ emissions. Ecoshell offers certified, high-performance solutions that support modern industries in transitioning toward more sustainable and circular production.

Key Benefits:

✓ Plastic Reduction: Cuts plastic usage by up to 50% without compromising quality or processing performance.
✓ Lower CO₂ Emissions: Reduces carbon footprint by up to 70% compared to conventional plastic materials.
✓ Certified Recyclability: Fully EN 13430-compliant and FDA-approved for direct food contact.
✓ Antibacterial Properties: SGS-tested with 99.99% effectiveness against harmful bacteria.
✓ Easy Integration: Seamlessly compatible with existing manufacturing processes such as injection molding, blow molding, and film extrusion.

Application Areas:

🚗 Packaging Industry: Bottles, jars, tubes, and containers for cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food (used by brands like Unilever and Nestlé).
💡 Electronics: Antibacterial and durable housings made from PP or ABS for electronic components.
🧼 Consumer Goods: Non-slip mats, toys, and household items with lower plastic content and improved sustainability.
📦 Industrial Packaging: Trays, pallets, and foam-based solutions – durable, cost-effective, and eco-conscious.
🧪 Compounds: Used as a masterbatch base for customized, high-efficiency material formulations.

Sustainability & Innovation

Ecoshell embodies true circular economy principles by transforming food waste into certified high-tech material. Through a patented multi-step process, eggshells are refined into a high-performance calcium-based filler ideal for sustainable plastic production. We collaborate with OEM partners to create scalable, eco-conscious alternatives that meet both environmental and industrial demands.

🌬️ Efficient Drying Systems for Plastic Recyclates – Save Energy, Boost Quality

Modern drying technology is a cornerstone of sustainable plastic recycling. Our systems enable precise, energy-efficient drying of recyclates such as LDPE, LLDPE, HDPE and rigid plastics – without thermal damage to the material. Ideal for companies seeking to combine product quality, resource efficiency and economic performance.

Key Benefits:

 ✓ Ultra-low residual moisture: Down to 0.1 % – ensuring process stability for extrusion, injection moulding & compounding
✓ Up to 95 % energy savings: Save up to €280 in electricity costs per day (at €0.08/kWh) compared to conventional dryers
✓ Massive CO₂ reduction: Up to 700 tonnes CO₂ saved per year thanks to significantly lower power consumption
✓ Compact design: Space-saving integration into existing or new processing lines
✓ Smart control: Adaptive real-time process optimisation for maximum output quality with minimal downtime
✓ Versatile use: Suitable for film and rigid plastics in post-consumer and post-industrial recycling

Typical Applications:

 ♻️ Plastic washing & drying lines
 🏭 Recyclate preparation before extrusion or pelletising
 🧴 Packaging, construction, automotive sectors
 🌊 Pre-/post-dewatering in recycling or separation processes

Why choose this drying solution?

 Our systems combine mechanical dewatering, spin drying and optional thermal stages into one energy-optimised unit. They deliver consistently high-quality output with minimal operating costs – saving up to €23 and over 100 kg CO₂ per tonne of recyclate processed.

We exclusively represent this technology in the DACH region and support our clients with consulting, integration and implementation – hands-on, reliable and deeply rooted in the recycling and plastics industry.
