In industries such as footwear manufacturing, upholstery production, and leather goods processing, large volumes of leather scraps, offcuts, and defective products are generated daily. Improper disposal of this waste not only causes environmental burden but also leads to resource waste. To address this challenge, GEP ECOTECH offers a reliable and high-performance Leather Shredder solution tailored for efficient size reduction and recycling of leather materials.
Powerful Double-Shaft Design with Multi Advantages
The GEP ECOTECH's Leather Shredder adopts a heavy-duty double-shaft shredder design, equipped with wear-resistant cutters and a high-torque, low-speed motor system. This enables it to effectively shred various types of leather—including genuine leather, synthetic leather (PU, PVC), laminated leather, and composite fabrics—without wrapping, clogging, or overloading. It also has the following advantages:
1. The integral shredding chamber, which has been overheated and processed as a whole, has high mechanical strength, is not easy to deform and has a long service life;
2. Using high-strength alloy steel, imported from Europe to independently process cutters and cutter shafts, with good wear resistance;
3. Equipped with a smart PLC and HMI interface, the shredder supports load monitoring, remote diagnostics, auto-reverse, and overload protection for safe, automated control.
4. Customizable, available in a wide range of sizes, power ratings (from 11 kW to 2x200 kW), and cutter configurations to meet different material types and output size requirements—typically 100-300 mm.
5. Easy Maintenance & Blade Replacement, split chamber design allows for fast access to the cutting area. Blade sets are modular, wear-resistant, and easy to change, reducing downtime and maintenance cost.
Thanks to the above advantages, the GEP ECOTECH's leather shredder has a wide material adaptability. From thick cowhide offcuts to soft, flexible leather trimmings, the machine can handle diverse leather waste forms, including production leftovers, rejected items, leather bags, gloves, and even laminated textile-leather composites. Its adaptability makes it ideal for leather factories, recycling stations, RDF preparation lines, and waste-to-energy applications.
Environmental and Economic Benefits
By shredding leather waste into smaller, manageable pieces, the Leather Shredder facilitates further material reuse, RDF fuel preparation, or safe disposal. It not only reduces landfill volume and disposal cost, but also supports sustainable manufacturing by recovering valuable materials or converting waste into energy.
Choose GEP ECOTECH's Leather Shredding Solution to turn waste into value with efficiency, durability, and minimal maintenance. Whether you're handling industrial leather scraps or mixed textile-leather waste, we deliver tailored systems to meet your production and environmental goals.
