PLEXTRUD · Straw Production Equipment

Straw Extrusion Lines

Find the right equipment direction for plastic drinking straws or biodegradable straws. Start with your material, product dimensions and production targets, then explore a configuration matched to your project.

Choose Your Production Direction

Two Types of Straw Making Machines

Choose by your intended straw material and finished-product requirements. Each project needs its own tooling, process settings and downstream equipment assessment.

Plastic Drinking Straw Making Machine

Discuss a line for conventional plastic drinking straws, including PP-based projects. Confirm the exact resin grade, straw geometry and product design before selecting the equipment.

  • Specify diameter, wall thickness and cut length.
  • Review color, stripe, cutting and collection options separately.
  • Agree output targets and trial conditions for your product.

Biodegradable Straw Making Machine

Explore a line for PLA-based straw projects and other biodegradable formulations subject to material assessment. Configuration starts with the resin supplier's data and your reference samples.

  • Review material grade, drying and processing guidance.
  • Match tooling and cooling to the target straw.
  • Confirm suitability and performance through agreed trials.

Which Straw Extrusion Line Fits Your Project?

Use the comparison below to prepare your inquiry. Final specifications are confirmed for the actual material and finished straw.

Selection PointPlastic Drinking Straw LineBiodegradable Straw Line
MaterialExact conventional plastic grade, such as the proposed PP resin.Exact PLA grade or other biodegradable compound, with technical data.
PreparationConfirm handling, feeding and any preparation required for the chosen resin.Review drying, moisture handling and the supplier’s processing window.
Product designDiameter, wall thickness, cut length, color and any stripe requirements.Diameter, wall thickness, cut length and appearance requirements for the formulation.
Line configurationExtrusion, tooling, cooling, haul-off and cutting matched to the product.Material-specific extrusion, tooling, cooling, haul-off and cutting assessment.
AcceptanceAgree dimensions, cut quality, output and trial conditions.Agree the same production criteria; verify environmental claims separately for the finished product.

Material compatibility, output and equipment scope require project confirmation. A machine does not by itself certify a straw as biodegradable, compostable or suitable for food contact.

Define the Straw You Want to Produce

A reference sample or drawing helps clarify dimensions, cut ends, appearance and downstream handling. Include your intended beverage application and destination-market requirements.
