Our machine can handle:
-
LDPE and HDPE shopping bags
-
Garbage bags and trash liners
-
Industrial stretch films
-
Food packaging films and plastic wrappers
-
Agricultural mulch films and greenhouse covers

How Does the Plastic Bag Shredder Work?
The plastic bag shredder operates by feeding soft plastic materials—such as shopping bags, stretch films, or packaging wrappers—into a rotating cutting chamber. Inside the chamber, high-speed rotary blades work together with stationary blades to slice and tear the plastic into smaller, uniform flakes.
The working process includes:
-
Feeding: Plastic bags are loaded manually or via a conveyor belt.
-
Cutting & Shredding: The rotating blades cut the material against fixed blades, minimizing clogging and wrapping.
-
Sizing: A screen underneath the blades filters material, allowing only properly sized flakes to pass through.
-
Discharge: The shredded plastic is collected or conveyed directly to the washing or pelletizing system.
Many models feature anti-wrapping blade designs and automatic reverse systems to prevent jamming—making them ideal for soft, flexible plastics.
