EP Mobile Plastics Recycling was formed in 2024. It was formed due to a need in our area and beyond for a mobile plastic recycling plant. As soon as we contacted Applied Machinery with this idea, we knew the company was not only informative, knowledgeable, professional but willing to work with us to secure our goal. Supplying us with not only a very suitable all-round machine but technical expertise and fantastic parts back up to say the least

When we decided to process pipe and consumer waste (Bottles, etc.) and increase recycled content across our product range, we selected Applied Machinery as our equipment partner.
Applied Machinery professionally managed every stage—from concept and design through manufacturing, installation, and commissioning—with excellent communication throughout. The success of the first project led us to order another similar system, which has since delivered equally strong performance and results.
