70 Years of SIKOPLAST

For 70 years, SIKOPLAST Recycling Technology has stood for independent, high performance solutions in plastics recycling. As an independent, owner managed company, SIKOPLAST has been developing and manufacturing reliable technologies for nearly all recycling requirements for decades, with a clear focus on efficiency, durability and quality.

The company was shaped by its founder Heinrich Koch, a pioneer and inventor of the conical single screw. This successful principle still forms the core of SIKOPLAST's extruder technology today. Over the decades, the system has been continuously developed and continues to stand for energy efficient processes, robust machinery and flexible applications.

While the recycling market continues to evolve, SIKOPLAST remains committed to developing sustainable, economical and long lasting solutions. Modular plant concepts, energy efficient systems with only one drive, plastcompactor free technologies and gentle material processing without water addition demonstrate the company's innovative strength. Systems with operating lifetimes of over 60 years underline the robustness and sustainability of SIKOPLAST technology.

In addition to complete turn key plants, SIKOPLAST also supports OEM partners with individual components such as screen changers or underwater pelletizing systems and modernizes existing systems across manufacturers. This flexibility makes the company a reliable partner for customers worldwide.

Today, SIKOPLAST employs more than 40 people. Experience, cross generational knowledge transfer and flat hierarchies shape the corporate culture. Short decision making paths and close cooperation with customers enable practical and future oriented solutions.

On the occasion of its 70th anniversary, SIKOPLAST looks back with pride on the past decades while clearly focusing on future developments. The company continues to see itself not as the largest provider, but as a quality and know how specialist for turnkey recycling solutions.
