Beverage Cartons Liquid Dewatering

Beverage cartons, together with PET bottles and aluminum cans, account for a large share of the beverage packaging market. Every day, beverage manufacturers and recyclers handle large quantities of expired, returned, line-rejected, and post-consumer beverage cartons. These cartons often contain residual liquid, which increases transportation costs, causes unpleasant odors, and reduces recycling efficiency. A reliable beverage cartons liquid dewatering solution quickly separates the remaining liquid from the cartons, minimizing waste volume and preparing the packaging for efficient downstream recycling.


Liquids in Beverage cartons are much harder to get extracted by labor work than the PET bottles because the holes on the cartons are very small. Therefore, mechanical support is very necessary for this situation. Dewater machine is available for packaging and containers like beverage cartons. With strong mechanical pressure, the liquid can be easily extracted.



Current Beverage Cartons Recycling

As sustainability and resource recycling become increasingly important worldwide, beverage cartons are receiving greater attention for their high recycling value. Today, an established recycling network connects beverage manufacturers, distributors, individual collectors, recycling companies, and paper mills. Waste beverage cartons are collected from various sources and transported to recycling facilities, where the recovered paper fibers are processed into valuable new products such as kraft paper, shopping bags, notebooks, tissue products, and other recycled paper materials.


The collection and transportation stage is where GREENMAX dewatering machine makes a significant difference. While post-consumer cartons collected by individuals usually contain little residual liquid, beverage manufacturers, large-scale distributors, and recycling companies often handle large quantities of line-rejected, expired, returned, or damaged beverage cartons that still contain beverages. Without proper liquid removal, these cartons are heavier, take up more storage space, increase transportation and disposal costs, and reduce recycling efficiency. Efficient liquid dewatering helps prepare beverage cartons for more economical and sustainable downstream recycling.


Therefore, beverage manufacturers, distributors, and recycling companies need a professional solution to efficiently remove residual liquids and compact beverage cartons before transportation and recycling. GREENMAX dewatering machine is specifically designed for this purpose, efficiently extracting the remaining liquid while compacting the cartons into dense bales. This helps reduce handling and transportation costs, save valuable storage space, and improve the overall efficiency of the beverage carton recycling process.

1. Dewater: Automotive compression makes the drink liquid separated from the packaging.

2. Compact: Strong pressure compact the cartons into smaller volumes with the ratio of 6:1.

3. The separated liquid could be collected in the tank to get recycled and reused again in an appropriate way.
