PET Bottle Label Separator PLS-5000 Case Study 2 ■Industry: Waste Management ■Application: Label separation of business-related PET bottles (pre-treatment before compression) 【Customer's Challenges】 To achieve a safe, secure, and stable community through their business activities, the company, which engages in intermediate waste processing, management of water supply and sewage facilities, building management, and cleaning services, compresses and ships PET bottles collected from Kumamoto Prefecture. The majority of the collected PET bottles come with labels and caps, and some contain leftover liquids or foreign objects. Until now, they have been compressing and packaging the bottles with labels and caps intact and shipping them to recycling companies for further processing. However, they have been facing issues as the selling price for bottles with labels and caps has been declining, and there has been an increasing number of cases where such bottles are not accepted at all. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

■Introduction Yamamoto Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a machinery manufacturer founded in 1918 in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture. We have gained the top market share in Japan for agricultural machinery, particularly grain dryers and straw cutters. "Because we are a company that has walked alongside agriculture, we want to contribute to improving the global environment that supports food production." This desire, combined with our cultivated technology, led to the creation of the polystyrene reduction machine "High Melter." Through the provision of our products, we aim to create a bright future for the industry together with those who are challenging themselves in the recycling industry (*). That is our mission. ■Thoughts on Development The concept of a "circular economy," which views discarded items as resources and aims to circulate resources without generating waste, is gaining attention. However, the recycling industry (*), which plays a significant role in this, does not receive much public interest, and many companies are struggling with labor shortages. Through manufacturing, we want to shine a spotlight on this industry and bring about change. This is the sentiment embedded in all the environmental equipment produced by Yamamoto Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (*) In contrast to the "arterial industries" that produce goods, industries that collect, recycle, reuse, process, and dispose of waste are referred to as "venous industries," likening them to the circulation of blood in the human body.
