Founded in 1986, BD Plast has established itself as a leading supplier for crucial manufacturers of extrusion systems. Over the years, the company has enhanced its reputation by developing innovative machinery lines and products, including extrusion adapters and melt pipes, while fostering beneficial international partnerships. BD Plast also prioritizes sustainability, and recycling has been at the heart of the company’s mission since its inception.
BD Plast’s latest innovation, CleanChanger©, is a self-cleaning filtering system that is fully insulated and has been recently patented. CleanChanger© is an automatic and continuous hydraulic three-plate screen changer designed to operate independently, significantly minimize waste, and enable 100% material reuse[1]. The product’s unique features include automatic ejection of breaker plates, making it useful in several processes, including granulation, recycling, and masterbatch processes, among others[1].
BD Plast’s CEO, Dante Boicelli, emphasizes the company’s focus on continuous improvement and commitment to creating reliable, high-quality screen changer systems. They produce approximately 1,400 systems per year, custom-tailored to the customer’s specific requirements.
With CleanChanger©, BD Plast has demonstrated its ability to answer market demands with high-quality solutions. By implementing a highly efficient screen cleaning cycle, CleanChanger© ensures a level of cleanliness equal to that of virgin plastic, thereby further reducing production costs. This innovative product signifies a step towards supporting the circular economy as the use of recycled plastic in industrial production is now often obligatory.
