Our First Client In Panama

At K Germany 2019, we started a cooperation with a customer from Panama. They have been producing film and bags in their country for a long time and now they want to start recycling and contribute to the circular economy.

This recycling project we have been together from the beginning. They were very brave for a country that was not industrially developed because they could not find much support, such as suppliers of screws, mechanical or electrical parts, or operators with the skills to operate the machines.

Finally, we supplied a crusher, a mill and a pelletizer for this new recycling plant of our customer. We sent our technical service staff from Mexico, where we have an after-sales service point, to install their machines and train them for almost 2 weeks.

Since then, our customers have been able to produce their pellets from post-industrial or post-consumer materials.

These pellets can be used to produce bags or to sell tons of resin to customers in countries like Nicaragua and Colombia. This is totally good business, not only do they reduce the cost of their existing products, but they also have a new range of products, in this case resins, and they end up with a larger market outside of Panama.

With the gradual growth of the business, the customer saw the problem of recycling the dirtiest material, which meant more complete solutions such as cleaning, drying and even self-cleaning filters in the granulator.

Juan, the president of this company, told us: Now he can work 24 hours from Monday to Saturday, producing 350-400kg per hour with a 100mm spindle machine, and we are very happy with the brand and recommend it 100%.

We are proud to help our customers to make their investments safe and ultimately profitable in the long run. We are always here to provide after-sales service.
