摘要

Manufacturing plastics products from a raw material containing at least 50% by weight reclaimed synthetic thermoplastics material by conveying a mat of the raw material through an oven to heat the material to the softening point thereof, and compressing the softened mat downstream of the oven between three rollers arranged generally one above the other to define a first nip between the upper and middle lower rollers and a second nip or passage between the middle and lower rollers, wherein the middle and lower rollers are of substantially greater diameter than the upper roller.
