Dismantle Used Motor Parts (eg. Metal, Aluminium, Cast Iron, Copper)

Liquid Waste Product (eg. Machine Lubricant Oil, Low Classes Chemical)
Issues & Problems
The Polypropylene PP & Polyethylene PE plastics that are dismantled from the vehicle scrapping process are of long
durability and will be in good conditions even after 10 years. However, as the company
was unable to further utilize these types of plastic resources, they are considered as
waste and can only be disposed.
As the volume of plastic increases rapidly, it has become more costly for the company in
terms of operation cost to dispose these waste PP & PE plastic products, whereby it is not
cost effective nor will cost efficient and it affect the company’s sustainability to operate
in the long run.
Solution
Kew Garden has acquired and implemented both the Heavy Duty Industrial Shredder Machine and Plastic
Recycling Extrusion Machine in order to have the means and capability to recycle these waste PP &
PE plastic products into plastic pellets, which can be further used as raw materials for
plastic productions.
