About Andela
For over three decades, Andela has led the industry in glass recycling, engineering machinery that transforms waste glass into high-quality sand and aggregates.
Founded in 1990, Andela’s first product, the Glass Pulveriser, was designed to turn waste glass into smooth, user-friendly sand. Today, their growing range of pulverisers and crushers serves the glass recycling needs of facilities worldwide, with equipment built to last and easy to maintain.
Overview of Andela Products
Andela’s glass recycling equipment helps industries worldwide turn waste glass into safe, usable products. Waste Initiatives actively distributes Andela systems to meet the growing demand for effective, environmentally responsible recycling solutions.
Glass Pulverisers: Andela’s patented Glass Pulveriser Systems transform glass waste into sand and gravel-sized aggregates with rounded edges. This technology preserves other materials, such as metals and plastics, in larger forms, allowing for easy separation. The glass aggregates are smooth and safe to handle, suitable for landscaping, filtration media, or even playgrounds. The popular GP Mini is an entry-level, mid-to-high volume pulveriser ideal for remote areas, mining sites, and camps. It efficiently crushes glass into an aggregate and sand mix that can be used in construction, landscaping, or beach restoration. Compact and easy to use, the GP Mini reduces glass waste in locations with limited waste disposal options.
Glass Crushers: Andela’s versatile glass crushers reduce all kinds of glass into cullet, which can be customised to specific sizes. Available as standalone units or part of a larger system, the crushers handle 5–30 tons per hour and are also suitable for liquid-filled container dewatering and product destruction.
