Powder & PVC handling
Complete Handling Solutions for PVC & Powdered Materials
Plantech-CST designs and supplies integrated systems for the conveying, dosing, mixing, and storage of powders and PVC-specific materials used in compounding and extrusion. As part of the Syncro Group, their solutions are engineered for precision, safety, and efficiency—meeting the unique challenges of handling fine powders and additives that demand higher containment and environmental control.
UK Extrusion works alongside Plantech-CST to deliver turnkey systems tailored to the plastics industry, with a focus on powder-heavy production environments such as PVC processing, masterbatch production, and technical compound manufacturing.
Powder & PVC applications
Specialist solutions for Powder & pvc handling
Powder and PVC processing introduces specific handling requirements not seen with typical granular polymers. Materials may be highly abrasive, cohesive, prone to bridging or dusting, or require strict environmental controls due to ATEX or hygiene regulations.
Plantech-CST‘s systems are ideal for:
- Feeding high-capacity PVC compounding lines
- Conveying bulk powders and additives to extrusion and mixing lines
- Managing bag and silo storage, discharge, and transfer
- Controlled transport of blends and finished powders
- Automatic dosing of multiple additives with high precision
Whether handling virgin PVC, recycled powders, calcium carbonate, or minor additives, the systems are designed for reliability, containment, and clean operation.
Powder & PVC Product Range
Engineered Solutions for
Powder & PVC Processing
Explore a complete range of systems designed for safe, efficient handling of powders and PVC—whether conveying, dosing, discharging, or filtering.
Dosing & Mixing
Automated gravimetric or volumetric dosing systems for consistent and traceable mixing of powdered ingredients, fillers, and PVC resins. Configurable for single or multiple hoppers, including loss-in-weight and batch mixing systems.
Dense Phase Conveying
Low-speed, high-pressure conveying designed for fragile or abrasive powders. Reduces product degradation and pipe wear, ideal for longer distances or sensitive blends.
Dilute Phase Conveying
Cost-effective conveying for lighter or free-flowing powders using a high-velocity airstream. Suitable for short distances and non-cohesive materials.
Mechanical Conveying
Screw conveyors, chain conveyors, and rotary valves for robust transport of materials in environments where pneumatic systems are less suitable.
Bags Handling
Complete systems for unloading, emptying, and storing materials from sacks and bulk bags. Includes big bag dischargers, sack tipping stations, and integrated dedusting.
Extraction & Filters
Customised extraction systems with integrated filtration ensure safe and dust-free operation. ATEX-compliant solutions are available for explosive or hazardous powders.
