Plastic separation and washing systems for optimal recycling in a circular economy
At B+B, we have been developing and building machines for the plastic recycling industry for over 30 years. We have seen recycling technologies come and go. What started as an economical ground, today, we acknowledge the growing need to preserve our world.
EUROPE´S PLASTIC RECYCLING MISSION AND THE B+B PARTICIPATION
The European Union waste management statistics show that 74% of consumer plastics ends up in landfills (39%) or is incinerated (35%). Only 26% of the collected plastic waste is recycled. Of this percentage, only half is recycled within the EU. The other half is exported.

About Heilig Group
It all started in 1978 when N.M. Heilig B.V. was founded by Nicolaas Maria Heilig. The company started out with one welding machine, followed by the maintenance and production of various machinery. These services were the cause of an unrivaled success and, during the years, lead to specialization and acquisition of related businesses in machinery and installations for the bulk handling and recycling industry. In fulfilling our mission to offer our clients full-service in engineering, developing, manufacturing, and installing, we have extended Heilig Group to what it is today. A group formed by individual companies offering a whole concept of solutions in recycling, waste management, bulk handling, wood processing, heat exchanging, industrial mixing, and electrotechnology.
