Are you wondering where hot air recirculation or hot air recycling is possible? In almost all industrial hot air processes. Here is a non-exhaustive list:

  • Shrinkage processes in the machinery and food industry that take place in shrink ovens
  • Activation processes for adhesive and tube closures in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry
  • Hot riveting and preheating for compression molding in the car parts industry
  • Roasting foods such as coffee, nuts, tea
  • Drying insulation materials (e.g. rock wool) and flow materials
