About B-Plast 2000
B-Plast 2000 Kunststoffverarbeitungs-GmbH is an owner-managed plastics recycling and trading company founded in 1998 and based in Aurich (Lower Saxony). The company specializes in the purchase and material recovery of production residues from the plastics manufacturing and processing industries. Processing includes analysis, milling, fine milling, shredding, demetallization, sieving, sifting, homogenizing/blending, sorting, pressing, as well as regranulation and compounding. Plastics are purchased and supplied, among other things, as virgin material, NT granulates, regranulates, ground materials, fibers, chunks, briquettes, agglomerate, powder, dust, films in bales and rolls, bottle preforms and flakes – with around 650 products ranging from standard thermoplastics such as PE, PP, PS, ABS and PC to high-performance polymers such as PEEK, PPS, PVDF, PSU and bio-based granulates. An in-house laboratory with a pilot plant and a calibrated truck weighbridge ensure the quality of the raw materials. With 110 employees, 20,300 m² of hall space on an 81,000 m² company site and business relations in 45 countries on four continents, the company serves customers and suppliers in the SME and large industrial sectors.
