For decades, recyclers have depended on large-scale processors to handle Auto Shredder Residue (ASR), copper-rich scrap, and complex metal streams. While this model offers convenience, it often comes at the cost of control, speed, and profitability. Material is shipped out, margins are compressed, and recyclers are left waiting for someone else to determine the value of their output.

ERS offers a different path.

Our ASR processing systems are engineered for recyclers who want to own their process from start to finish. Whether you're handling Shredder Wire, ICW, tailings, or full ASR streams, ERS systems allow you to process material on-site—eliminating third-party contracts, shipping delays, and margin erosion.

With a modular, turnkey approach, ERS systems are tailored to fit your facility and your scrap profile. We focus heavily on copper recovery, knowing that even small improvements in yield can translate into significant gains in profitability. Our technology is backed by real-world validation, and our test facility is open for performance trials—so you can see the results before you invest.

In-house processing isn’t just about equipment—it’s about empowerment. You control the throughput. You keep the value. You claim the profit.

ERS systems are built for recyclers who are ready to stop outsourcing their margins and start owning their results.

The Recycled Materials Association (ReMA) has introduced Vesper, a new aluminum scrap specification focused on preserving the integrity of high-grade wrought aluminum recovered from vehicles, buildings, and industrial applications. As demand grows for clean, traceable, and circular aluminum recycling, Vesper sets a clear benchmark for purity and process control.

Vesper defines strict thresholds for magnesium, zinc, iron, and nonmetallics, and requires dry, non-oxidized material free of sealed or pressurized components. These standards aim to prevent high-quality aluminum from being downcycled into lower-grade cast alloys, supporting closed-loop reuse in manufacturing.

Engineered Recycling Systems designs and builds the recovery platforms that make this level of precision possible. Our modular systems—trusted across copper and aluminum wire processing—can be configured to support Vesper-grade separation and throughput. From granulation and air separation to magnetic and eddy current sorting, ERS technology empowers recyclers to meet evolving specifications with confidence.

If your operation is preparing for Vesper-grade aluminum recovery, ERS is ready to engineer the solution. Let’s build it together.

At Engineered Recycling Systems LLC, we build partnerships that turn operational challenges into scalable solutions. Our latest commissioned system is a high-capacity corrugated scrap processing line designed to meet the growing demand for clean, dense bales ready for direct mill delivery.

This installation features a two-ram baler configuration, optimized for handling loose corrugated scrap, roll scrap, and non-shredded packaging waste from multiple partner sites. The system delivers mill-spec bale density with minimal handling—streamlining logistics and maximizing material value.

Engineered for Versatility Whether it’s damaged rolls, full corrugated sheets, compactor loads of OCC, or mixed packaging scrap, this system is built to process it all. No shredding required. No bottlenecks. Just continuous throughput and consistent bale quality.

Why It Matters

• Reduces labor and handling costs

• Improves bale integrity for direct mill acceptance

• Handles high-volume scrap with minimal downtime

• Supports sustainability goals with efficient material recovery

Let’s Build Something Together This project reflects our commitment to custom-engineered recycling systems that meet real-world production demands. If your operation handles corrugated scrap and needs a smarter way to recover, bale, and deliver—ERS is ready to partner.

Engineered Recycling Systems has redefined industrial air filtration with its patented CCM® OCT Filter System—a compact, non-combustible solution that eliminates the need for explosion venting, external housings, or relief panels.

Unlike traditional systems, CCM® OCT filters are built for internal safety with antistatic components, grounded suction nozzles, and direct sprinkler compatibility. This allows safe installation inside production areas—without added infrastructure or manual cleaning.

💡 “Combustible dust shouldn’t dictate your facility design,” says ERS. “Our filters operate safely, efficiently, and visibly—without explosion risks or layout compromises.”

Compliance Note While CCM® OCT Filters are engineered to eliminate the need for explosion venting, all installations must comply with applicable local fire and safety codes. Site-specific adaptations to sprinkler systems, grounding protocols, and facility layout may be required based on jurisdictional standards and risk assessments.

Engineered Recycling Systems is finalizing the commissioning of a new corrugated scrap conveyance system built for high-volume trim removal and dust control in a packaging production environment.

This installation features ERS’s proven technologies—including the Balancing Fan, LPS Separator, and CCM® Filter—configured for continuous scrap handling, clean discharge, and OSHA/NFPA compliance.

System Highlights:

• Trim removal from corrugated converting lines

• Airflow balancing for reduced energy demand

• Filtration system with rotating nozzle cleaning

• Dust cyclone and pucker discharge into baler or dumpster

This installation is part of a growing number of ERS systems commissioned across the industry, as more manufacturers trust our engineered solutions for reliable scrap conveyance, dust control, and long-term performance.

Engineered Recycling Systems (ERS) is finalizing installation of a dual-feed two-ram baler system designed to optimize OCC handling with high throughput and operational flexibility.

System Configuration This custom setup includes two input paths:

Roll Shear: Rolls are cut and discharged directly onto the conveyor.
Pit Conveyor Feed: Operators can load bulk OCC through a secondary conveyor.

Both feeds converge onto the single nose over conveyor that delivers material into the two-ram baler. The baler compresses the scrap into dense, uniform bales for transport or recycling. Final tuning is underway to ensure seamless integration with the facility’s workflow.

Installation Highlights

Dual-feed configuration
Two-ram baler for high-density output
Integrated conveyor logic for synchronized material flow
Ease of operation
