Companies in the plastics-processing industry must make their operations more efficient, avoid material losses and, at the same time, reduce energy consumption. At K 2025, it became clear which concepts can support these efforts. Many trade visitors had B.IRD Machinery Stricker GmbH’s infrared solution firmly on their agenda. They came specifically to the stand of the family-owned company from Aachen to learn more about its infrared rotary-drum technology. Demand was so strong that several machines were sold directly at the fair.
Co-Founder Daniel Stricker, Chief Commercial Officer, sees a clear trajectory:
“Viewed clearly, this is a technology for dramatically improving efficiency. Particularly in difficult times, it helps companies strengthen their competitive position. This is more than an added benefit—it is a strategically important advantage. It is therefore unsurprising that plastics processors and recyclers increasingly regard B.IRD as a highly valuable option. Our first production series is sold out. We are launching the next production cycle and will deliver the next units in spring 2026.”
