Cleaning
Once sorted, the plastics undergo a thorough cleaning process to remove any contaminants such as dirt, labels, adhesives, and other residues. Cleaning is essential to maintain the purity and quality of the recycled material.

Shredding
After cleaning, the plastics are shredded into smaller pieces or flakes using specialized equipment. Shredding increases the surface area of the plastic, making it easier to process in subsequent steps.

Melting and Extrusion
The shredded plastic flakes are melted and then extruded through a die to form long strands or pellets. This process helps in homogenizing the material and removing. The molten plastic is then cooled and cut into small granules of uniform size.
