Screen Reclaiming Systems
Cost-Effective | Proven Performance
Reclaim Screens Faster with the ARS™ System
Hydro Engineering, Inc. revolutionized the screen printing industry in 1980 with the introduction of the Hydroblaster®—a 3,000 PSI high-pressure washer that could effectively remove emulsion without chemicals and without damaging the screen mesh.
Today, our Automatic Reclaiming System (ARS™) builds on that legacy by offering unmatched simplicity, speed, and cost-efficiency in screen reclaiming.
Reduce Chemicals, Reduce Waste
High-pressure, chemical-free reclaiming delivers more than just superior screen cleaning:
- Ink and emulsion are removed as solids, not sludge
- Solids are easily filtered out using mechanical filtration
- Clarified water is safely discharged to sanitary sewer or treated for recycling
- Ideal for facilities that cannot connect to city sewer systems
Our patented process, first introduced in 1989, remains the gold standard for sustainable screen reclaiming.
Proven by EPA Research
In 1994, Hydro Engineering, Inc.'s reclaiming method was featured in a cooperative study by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Printing Association Nationwide. The findings were clear:
- Lower environmental risk
- Lower operating cost
- Superior reclaiming performance
