Successful cases
Due to the compactness and convenience of the machine and the practicality of the finished product, it is popular in many countries. The expansion and cutting machines produced by our factory have been exported to the United Arab Emirates, Ireland, Australia, the Philippines, South Korea, Lebanon, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Singapore, Indonesia, Turkey, Peru, and many other countries.
The difference between it and the waste paper crushing and grinding machine is that the finished product can be processed and used directly as packaging material, while the finished product after the crusher still needs to be processed by the paper pulp machine, egg tray mold for the recycling machine, and other machines before use.
