From press-side to plant-wide.

American owned and built for 75 years. One maker for the drying, the conveying, the blending, and the whole plant.

Four Novatec dryers side by side, from press-side portable units to a central drying cabinet
The drying range: press-side portables through central plant dryers, all under the standard 5-year warranty.

We design, build, and install the whole plant.

Our systems experts visit your floor and engineer the complete plant, the drying, the conveying, the blending, and everything around them, then manage it end to end. Everything but the presses, from one partner.

  • Drying, conveying, blending. Engineered together, not bolted on.
  • Everything around them. Controls, layout, and the connections between.
  • Managed end to end. One partner from the site visit through start-up.

Questions we hear most.

Can I buy just one dryer or one pump?

Absolutely. Most of what we sell is a single machine. Buy one unit or build a whole plant, and the engineering behind it is the same either way.

Not sure which model you need?

That is what our applications engineers are for. Send your resin, your throughput, and your floor plan, and they size the system from there. Call 410.789.4811 to start.

Where is it built and supported?

Baltimore, Maryland. American owned and operated for 75 years, with engineering, manufacturing, and support in the U.S., backed by 24/7 U.S.-based service.

Can you integrate with equipment we already have?

Yes, where the system allows it. SmartConveying retrofits onto Novatec conveying already on your floor, and MCS and OptiFlex central controls put every dryer, pump, and receiver on one screen. An applications engineer confirms the fit before anything is quoted.

What if something fails?

Every machine carries a 5-year standard warranty, and the NovaWheel desiccant rotor a lifetime one. Genuine parts and 24/7 U.S.-based support keep any downtime short.

Put an engineer on it.

Tell Baltimore your resin, your rate, and your floor plan. An applications engineer sizes the system and stands behind it for five years.
