Navigating Togo's growing recycling industry? Whether you're processing lead acid batteries, lithium-ion cells, or circuit boards, a reliable filter press is the backbone of efficient, compliant operations. Here's your guide to the leading suppliers bringing quality, innovation, and local support to Togo's industrial landscape.
1. EcoCycle Togo Ltd.
If you're knee-deep in lead acid battery recycling, EcoCycle Togo Ltd. is the first name that comes up in industry circles. With a warehouse in Lomé and a team of engineers trained in Germany, they've built a reputation for turning complex recycling challenges into streamlined solutions. Their claim to fame? A fully integrated lead acid battery breaking and separation system that doesn't just shred batteries—it processes them responsibly.
At the heart of that system is their filter press equipment, designed to handle the acidic sludge and wastewater generated during battery breaking. Imagine a machine that can separate solids with 98% efficiency, reducing your disposal costs and keeping regulators happy. But they don't stop there: pair that filter press with their de-sulfurization machines and air pollution control system, and you've got a turnkey plant that meets both Togo's environmental standards and your bottom line.
What really sets them apart? Their "24/7 Response Promise." When a local recycling plant in Sokodé had a filter press clog during peak production, EcoCycle's team was on-site within three hours to fix it. That kind of after-sales support is why 80% of their clients come back for repeat orders.
2. GreenTech Industrial Supplies
Circuit board recycling is a messy business—literally. Between the fiberglass, metals, and toxic residues, you need equipment that can handle precision and power. Enter GreenTech Industrial Supplies, a family-run business that's been supplying Togo's electronics recycling sector since 2015. Their specialty? Circuit board recycling equipment that pairs brute force (think 20-ton hydraulic cutters) with finesse (like their compact granulator with dry separator).
But ask any of their clients, and they'll rave about the filter press. "We used to spend hours manually draining sludge from our circuit board washing tanks," says a manager at a Lomé-based e-waste facility. "GreenTech's filter press cut that time by 70% and reduced water usage by half." It's not just about speed, though—their filter presses come with customizable plates (from 500x500mm to 1200x1200mm) to fit tight factory spaces, a godsend for Togo's many small-to-medium recycling workshops.
Beyond circuit boards, they're making waves with their air pollution control system equipment. If you're shredding plastic or burning waste, their dust collectors and scrubbers ensure you're not just compliant with Togo's air quality laws—you're creating a safer workspace for your team. And with a showroom in Kara, you can see their filter presses and shredders in action before you buy.
3. TogoRecycle Machinery Co.
Lithium-ion battery recycling is the new gold rush in Togo, and TogoRecycle Machinery Co. is staking its claim with equipment that's as tough as the batteries it processes. Walk into their facility in Aného, and you'll see rows of li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment—shredders, separators, and yes, filter presses—all calibrated to handle the high-voltage, high-precision demands of lithium recycling.
What makes their filter press stand out? It's built for the "wet process" side of lithium recycling. When you're leaching lithium from battery cathodes, you end up with a slurry that needs to be dewatered before further processing. TogoRecycle's filter press uses a unique membrane system that squeezes out 30% more liquid than standard models, leaving a drier cake that's easier to transport and process. Pair that with their water process equipment, and you've got a closed-loop system that recycles 90% of the water used in your plant—critical in regions where water scarcity is a real concern.
Local miners in the Plateaux Region also swear by their lithium ore extraction equipment, which works seamlessly with their filter presses to separate ore from tailings. "We used to lose 15% of our lithium to wastewater," says a mine operator. "Now, with TogoRecycle's setup, we're capturing that ore—and that's profit we weren't seeing before."
4. CleanPlanet Engineering
When the Togolese government tightened environmental regulations in 2023, CleanPlanet Engineering became the go-to supplier for businesses scrambling to comply. Specializing in air pollution control system equipment, they've expanded their lineup to include filter presses that don't just separate solids—they help you meet stringent emissions and wastewater standards.
Take their air pollution control machines, for example. Pair a baghouse filter with their filter press, and you're tackling both air and water pollution in one fell swoop. A cement factory in Mango recently installed this combo and saw their particulate emissions drop by 92%, while their wastewater discharge met EU-level purity standards. "Regulators used to visit us monthly," jokes the factory manager. "Now, they send a congratulatory email once a year."
CleanPlanet's filter presses are also a hit in the food processing sector. A palm oil mill in Atakpamé uses their model to separate pulp from water, reducing waste and creating a byproduct that's sold as animal feed. It's this versatility—recycling, manufacturing, food processing—that makes them a favorite with diverse industries. And with a service center in Dapaong, even northern Togo isn't left out of their support network.
5. Industrial Solutions Togo
Sometimes, you don't need a specialized recycling machine—you need a workhorse that can handle anything . That's where Industrial Solutions Togo comes in. As the authorized distributor for a Chinese manufacturer with 20+ years of experience, they bring heavy-duty hydraulic press machines and filter presses to Togo's industrial heartland.
Their filter presses are built like tanks. With frames made from reinforced steel and filter plates rated for 150 bar pressure, they're designed for 24/7 operation in harsh environments. A mining company in Lomé has been running theirs nonstop for three years, processing ore tailings, and it's still performing like new. "We thought we'd need to replace parts by now," says their maintenance chief. "But the only thing we've changed is the filter cloths—and even those last twice as long as the ones from our old supplier."
Beyond filter presses, their hydraulic briquetter equipment is a hit with scrap metal yards. By compressing metal shavings into dense briquettes, businesses can reduce transportation costs by 40%. And with financing options through local banks, they've made it easier for small businesses to upgrade from manual processes to industrial-grade equipment. It's no wonder they're the top choice for factories in the Maritime Region.
6. RecyclePro Equipments
Cable recycling is a tough gig—scrap cables are dirty, tangled, and full of materials that need to be separated cleanly. RecyclePro Equipments gets that, which is why their cable recycling equipment lineup includes everything from scrap cable stripper machines to—you guessed it—filter presses that handle the grime.
When you strip and shred cables, you end up with plastic particles, metal filings, and oily water. RecyclePro's filter press separates all three, turning waste into sellable commodities: clean copper, recyclable plastic, and water that can be reused in your process. A cable recycling co-op in Kpalimé bought two of their filter presses last year and now processes 500kg of cables daily—up from 200kg before. "We used to throw away so much 'junk' water," says the co-op leader. "Now, we're selling the copper sludge to a foundry and the plastic to a molding company. The filter press paid for itself in six months."
What's their secret? They design their equipment with Togo's realities in mind. Their filter presses run on single-phase electricity for areas with unstable power, and they use locally available filter cloths to keep replacement costs low. For rural recyclers, that's a game-changer.
7. TechWaste Management Ltd.
E-waste is piling up in Togo, and TechWaste Management Ltd. is on a mission to turn that problem into profit—starting with circuit boards and CRT recycling machines. Their niche? Equipment that handles the trickiest e-waste components, with filter presses that clean up the mess.
Take their circuit board recycling plant with dry separator (500-2000kg/hour capacity). It shreds boards, separates metals from plastics, and sends the resulting dust and sludge to their filter press. The result? 99% pure copper, gold, and silver, with wastewater that's clean enough to discharge into municipal systems. A recycling center in Lomé using this setup now exports 2 tons of precious metals monthly to Europe. "We're not just recycling—we're mining e-waste," their director.
But they don't stop at circuit boards. Their CRT recycling machines (those old TV and monitor tubes) use a specialized filter press to capture leaded glass particles, preventing them from leaching into soil or water. And with a training program for operators, they're not just selling equipment—they're building a skilled workforce for Togo's e-waste sector. It's this holistic approach that earned them a partnership with the Togolese Ministry of Environment last year.
8. Sustainable Systems Togo
Mining is big business in Togo, and Sustainable Systems Togo is helping miners do it cleaner with lithium ore extraction equipment and filter presses that reduce waste and boost yields. Their claim to fame? A dry process equipment line that uses 80% less water than traditional wet methods—critical in arid regions like the Savanes.
But when water is needed, their filter presses shine. Take their lithium tailing ore extraction equipment: after extracting lithium from ore, you're left with tailings that still contain traces of valuable minerals. Sustainable Systems' filter press dewaters these tailings, concentrating the minerals for a second extraction. A lithium mine in Bassar implemented this process and increased their overall yield by 18%. "We thought the tailings were 'spent,'" says the mine engineer. "Now, they're our most profitable stream."
They also offer a range of water process equipment, from sedimentation tanks to filter presses, designed to treat mining wastewater so it can be reused. For mines facing water restrictions, that's not just eco-friendly—it's essential for keeping operations running.
9. Waste2Resource Togo
Refrigerators, AC units, motors—these bulky appliances are a headache to recycle, but Waste2Resource Togo sees them as goldmines. Their refrigerator & AC recycling machines and motor recycling machines are designed to strip these appliances for copper, aluminum, and steel, with filter presses handling the messy refrigerants and oils.
Case in point: their motor stator cutter equipment. After cutting stators, you're left with oil-soaked metal chips. Waste2Resource's filter press separates the oil from the metal, allowing you to sell the chips as clean scrap and reuse the oil for lubrication. A scrapyard in Lomé started using this setup and now saves $300 monthly on lubricant costs. "We used to pay to dispose of the oily waste," says the owner. "Now, we're making money from it. That's the definition of turning waste into resource."
They also specialize in refrigerant extraction machines, which pair with their filter presses to capture and recycle harmful gases like CFCs. With Togo ratifying the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, businesses are scrambling to comply—and Waste2Resource is there with solutions that don't break the bank.
10. GlobalRecycle Togo Branch
When you want the reliability of an international brand with local support, GlobalRecycle's Togo branch delivers. As part of a global network with factories in China and Germany, they bring cutting-edge technology to Togo—including filter presses that set the bar for efficiency.
Their lineup reads like a recycling equipment encyclopedia: lead acid battery systems, li-ion breaking equipment, cable strippers, and yes, filter presses for every application. What's impressive is how they tailor these global solutions to Togo's needs. For example, their 2000kg/hour circuit board recycling plant with wet separator is modified to run on Togo's 50Hz power grid and includes a backup generator hookup for blackout-prone areas.
But it's their after-sales service that seals the deal. They maintain a parts warehouse in Lomé, so you're never waiting weeks for a replacement filter plate or hydraulic hose. And their team includes French-speaking engineers who understand both the equipment and Togo's business culture. For multinationals operating in Togo, that's priceless—consistency across borders, with local expertise when you need it.

Choosing Your Partner in Progress
Togo's recycling industry is at a crossroads—growing fast, full of potential, but in need of reliable equipment to turn waste into wealth. The filter press suppliers on this list aren't just selling machines; they're selling partnerships. Whether you're a small co-op in Kpalimé or a multinational in Lomé, the right supplier will understand your unique challenges: tight budgets, power fluctuations, local regulations, and the need for equipment that works as hard as you do.
When evaluating suppliers, look beyond the price tag. Ask about after-sales support—can they fix a broken filter press in 24 hours? Check if they use locally available parts to keep maintenance costs low. And don't forget to test their knowledge: a good supplier will ask about your specific process (lead acid vs. lithium, wet vs. dry) and recommend a filter press tailored to your needs, not a one-size-fits-all solution.
At the end of the day, a filter press isn't just a piece of equipment. It's the difference between wasting resources and maximizing profits, between cutting corners and complying with regulations, between struggling to keep up and leading Togo's recycling revolution. Choose wisely—and here's to a cleaner, more prosperous Togo.
