Pioneers of plastics recycling since 1985 - Our history The history of our family-run company begins in 1985 in Mühlheim am Main. Josef Wirnik founds a grinding company that reconditions high-quality rejects from the injection molding industry for reprocessing in order to promote the circular economy. For a long time, we campaigned for the industry to provide us with the surplus plastic, separated and labeled, instead of simply disposing of it. Recyclates were not in demand at that time, regranulates did not exist. When the turnaround comes and the demand for recycled material increases, we quickly become a sought-after partner for many companies thanks to our experience. At the turn of the millennium, we put our first compounding plant (extruder) into operation and set up a laboratory to process the ground material ourselves from then on. Since then, we have ensured the consistently high quality of our compounds through constant analysis and testing of raw materials and products. This is what our customers appreciate about pal plast. Our specialty compounds are specifically designed for various applications, with the majority going to the automotive industry. But our national and international customers also include the construction and electrical industries as well as many other sectors. Particularly sought-after re-compounds are, for example, scratch-resistant or low-noise versions. Son Amit Wirnik, who joined the family business in 1995, has been accompanying his father Josef Wirnik in the role of managing director since 2007. Together, they have since ensured the future-proof further development of pal plast. The commissioning of the new P2 plant in 2020 is a milestone - on the way to the future, it already fulfills our ideas of a holistic sustainability standard. With P2, we are not only meeting the permanently increasing demand for re-compounds, but are also creating a production facility in which our employees feel comfortable, which makes careful use of the resources of our environment, and which nevertheless produces at a consistently high level.

Power-Grip A zero-point palletizing system allows you to clamp and position work pieces, clamping media and fixtures quickly and precisely. The standardised interfaces drastically reduce set-up time, particularly for single work pieces and small batch production, thereby increasing effective machine uptime and productivity. With various grid sizes of e.g. 160 mm, 200 mm and 320 mm, you can effortlessly implement all your technical requirements. With Power-Grip your devices are no longer confined to individual machines. Once components have been mounted, they can easily be swapped in and out. Power-Grip does not loose its zero-point even if you have to swiftly produce something else in the meantime. Power-Grip adapts effortlessly to any manufacturing processes, including automated ones, and renders your assembly as flexible as you wish.
