Made in Italy · 40 years of experience

We turn waste into valuable raw materials.

We design and build shredders, granulators, compactors and complete plants to recover plastics, metals, copper cables and solar panels. Reliable, easy-to-use and safe machines, with spare parts and direct support.

Solar panel recycling

Inside every panel there is a small mine.

Copper, silver, aluminium, glass and crystalline silicon: with dismantling and proper separation, an end-of-life panel becomes raw material again, for new panels and much more.

Glass13.8 kg
Aluminium2.9 kg
Silicon2.8 kg
Plastics1.7 kg

Materials recoverable from a typical photovoltaic panel of about 22 kg.

Frequently asked questions

The most common questions.

Do you also build custom plants?

Yes. In addition to our standard machines, our technical office designs and builds machines and plants tailored to your needs: material to be processed, hourly capacity, available space.

Do you also work abroad?

Yes. We have installed machines in 12 countries, for example a shredding plant in Dubai. We handle design, delivery, installation and support.

Do you supply spare parts and service?

Yes. Spare parts and technical support come directly from us, the machine manufacturer, before and after the sale.

What copper purity do Eco Compact plants achieve?

Eco Compact plants separate copper from cable plastic with a purity of up to 99.8%. One or two operators are enough to run them.

Can solar panels be recycled?

Yes. Our plant dismantles the panel and separates glass, aluminium, silicon, plastics and copper. A typical panel of about 22 kg yields about 13.8 kg of glass and 2.9 kg of aluminium.

Where are you located?

Our headquarters and factory are in the industrial area of Termini Imerese, in the province of Palermo, Italy. You can call us on +39 091 813 9636 or write to info@tecnocos.net.
