Engineered Recycling Systems (ERS) is expanding its metal scrap recovery solutions to support a wide range of can‑manufacturing environments. Modern production lines for beverage cans, food cans, pet food containers, aerosol formats, and specialty metal packaging generate substantial volumes of trim, slugs, and offcuts during forming, decorating, and end‑making processes. This scrap represents valuable material — and losing it to outside recyclers means losing profit.

ERS systems are engineered to capture, convey, and process metal scrap directly at the source, enabling manufacturers to recycle their own material in‑house rather than shipping it out. Integrated shredders, granulators, and separation modules transform production scrap into clean, reusable metal streams that can be fed back into the facility’s recycling loop or sold at higher value.

This approach reduces dependency on third‑party recyclers, protects material value, and supports circularity goals across aluminum, steel, and composite can formats. Whether a facility produces DWI cans, tinplate food containers, or multi‑material specialty packaging, ERS systems ensure consistent scrap handling at full production speed.

Air filtration remains part of the overall solution — but as a supporting component. ERS provides stable airflow and particulate control to maintain clean conveyance and protect equipment, while the core system focuses on maximizing metal recovery and eliminating scrap‑related production losses.

As demand grows for recyclable, lightweight metal packaging, ERS continues to deliver systems that help manufacturers retain material value, improve efficiency, and strengthen sustainability performance.
