Transforming Plastics Manufacturing: Bulk Material Handling Solutions That Solve Real Industry Problems

Introduction: One Size Never Fits All in Plastics Manufacturing

In today’s fast-paced manufacturing world, efficiency and reliability are non-negotiables—especially in the Plastics Industry, where raw materials range from resins and additives to recyclates and bio-based compounds.

At Skills Engine Projects, in strategic partnership with Metalogonde, we know that no two material handling projects are alike. With over 30 years of experience and hundreds of implemented systems, we’ve learned that true success comes from deep industry knowledge, adaptive design, and continuous innovation.

If you’ve faced production bottlenecks, inconsistent mixing, material loss, or difficulty integrating recycling processes—you’re not alone. The good news? There’s a better way.

The Real Challenges in Bulk Material Handling for Plastics

When dealing with bulk materials like PVC compounds, polyolefins, masterbatches, and bio-plastics, many plastics manufacturers run into challenges such as:

• ❌ Material contamination from improper silo or hopper design

• ⚖️ Inaccurate dosing and feeding, leading to recipe deviations

• 🔁 Inefficient recycling integration

• 💨 Dust and volatile control in compounding and devolatilizing

• 🔄 Layout inflexibility, hindering future expansion

• 💥 System failures due to wear or inadequate filtering in conveying systems
