JOEST machines for the recycling industry
In the recycling sector, precise material separation, reliable conveying technology, and energy-efficient processes are crucial for economic success. JOEST offers customized vibration-based solutions specifically developed to meet the demands of the recycling industry. Our systems are used in a variety of applications, including the processing of metals, plastics, glass, construction and demolition waste, as well as biomass.
With robust vibrating conveyors, high-performance screening machines, and efficient separation systems, we enable precise classification and sorting of valuable materials. Our technologies are designed to deliver consistently high performance — even under challenging conditions and with varying material properties.
Suitable products
Versatile applications
The recycling industry demands reliable sorting technology, accurate material separation, and durable systems for continuous operation. JOEST provides vibration-based equipment and modern separation systems tailored to different material streams — from coarse materials to lightweight or fine fractions.
Our vibrating and screening machines are used in the recycling of metals, plastics, glass, construction debris, and biomass. They enable efficient classification and separation of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, glass fragments, construction waste, and organic materials. In addition, our separation technologies — such as the Zig-Zag Separator or the JOEST J-Flow — ensure precise sorting by density or particle size. This guarantees optimal pre-sorting of materials for subsequent recycling processes.
