In today’s increasingly environmentally conscious world, using waste paper to produce egg cartons has become a sustainable option.
In this article, we will explain in detail how to utilize waste paper to make egg cartons and the advantages of our egg carton machine in this process.
Steps of egg carton production
Raw material collection and processing
Mainly waste paper is used as raw material, such as old newspapers, cartons, magazines and so on.
These waste papers are sorted and processed to remove impurities to ensure the production of high-quality paper trays.
Pulp preparation
- Batching: mix the pulverized pulp with a certain proportion of water. You can also add additives, such as color, according to your needs.
- Crushing and mixing: It is pulverized using a pulper to turn it into pulp. The fineness of the pulp directly affects the strength and appearance of the egg tray.
Molding
- Selection of molds: select the appropriate molds according to the size and shape of the egg tray required.
- Molding process: through vacuum suction and pressure, the pulp is sucked into the mold, filling every corner of the mold evenly.
- Shaping: the paper tray is quickly shaped on the mold, and the molded egg tray is removed from the mold.
Drying
- Drying: the newly manufactured egg carton is wet, drying to remove the moisture and make it strong and durable.
- Solution selection: natural, drying room, brick kiln, metal dryer
- Natural drying: most cost-effective, suitable for small-scale egg carton making business.
