Clarity and Performance
for Your Dryer
Specialized engineering for dryers and drying technology in the coating and converting industry. We analyze, optimize, and develop – data-driven, practical, and on equal footing.
Drying technology is our
bread and butter
ecodry Converting Solutions is a specialized engineering company for dryers and drying technology in the coating and converting industry. We combine deep process understanding with practical implementation experience – from analysis through design to optimization in ongoing operations.
Our team brings together mechanical engineering, process technology and project management under one roof. This 360°-competence enables us to view drying processes holistically and deliver reliable solutions – not PowerPoint slides.

Engineering for complete
drying technology
From designing new dryer systems to optimizing existing facilities – we cover the entire spectrum of industrial drying technology.
Dryer Design & Drying Technology
Design and construction of dryers for water- and solvent-based systems. From nozzle configuration through heat transfer to complete system planning – based on proven methodology and proprietary software.
Process & System Optimization
Systematic analysis of existing drying processes with the goal of improving quality, throughput and energy efficiency. We identify potential that often goes undetected in daily operations.
Retrofit & Technical Upgrades
Technical modernization of existing dryers and peripheral systems. Whether nozzle conversion, air flow optimization or energy system upgrades – we develop implementable solutions for real facilities.
Commissioning & On-Site Support
Professional start-up and on-site support for dryer systems. Fine-tuning of process parameters, wet acceptance and performance verification – until the system runs reliably.
Energy Efficiency & Process Safety
Assessment and optimization of energy consumption of drying systems. Simultaneously: verification of safety-relevant functions according to applicable standards – from ATEX to EN 1539.
Technical Consulting & Training
Knowledge transfer on equal footing. We train your teams in drying technology and process understanding – practical, understandable and aimed at sustainably strengthening your internal expertise.
Rooted in the coating &
converting industry
We understand the interactions between product, process and dryer. Our focus is on industrial drying applications where thin layers are applied to substrates and dried – under real production conditions and with real requirements.
- ✓ Water- and solvent-based coating systems
- ✓ Thin films on foils, paper, textiles and specialty substrates
- ✓ Pressure-sensitive products, protective films, technical laminates
- ✓ Medical products, packaging, battery foils, decorative films
- ✓ Drying, curing, tempering and cooling in web processes
- ✓ Energy management, exhaust systems and thermal afterburning
What sets us apart from generalists
We are not a large consulting firm and not a machinery conglomerate. We are a focused specialist team that understands dryers – technically, procedurally and in the context of your facility.
Deep specialization
Drying technology is not just one of many topics for us – it is our only focus. This focus enables technical depth that generalists cannot achieve.
Practice over theory
Our team has designed, commissioned and optimized dryers. We know the reality on the factory floor – not just the theory behind it.
360°-Process expertise
Design, process technology and project management under one roof. We look not just at the dryer, but at the entire interplay of product, process and system.
Implementation-focused
We deliver no academic reports, but reliable solutions that work in your facility. Our goal: measurable results, not paper.
Radical honesty
Our best result for you could also be the confirmation that your system already runs optimally. We don't sell solutions you don't need.
Empowerment over dependency
We don't want to make our customers dependent on us, but to make them better. Every analysis and every training strengthens your internal expertise and your independence.
Four steps to clarity
Our approach is structured, transparent and designed to disrupt your operations as little as possible.
Create clarity
In an initial conversation, we understand your situation, identify the core question and provide initial food for thought.
Define milestones
Together we set clear goals and intermediate steps. This creates a transparent action plan.
Execute with focus
We work solution-oriented and laser-focused – whether together with your team, with partners or independently.
Track & celebrate
Reflect on results, secure success, document metrics. A final report ensures the sustainability of the measures.
Typical assignments
Our projects start where standard solutions reach their limits – and true specialization is needed.
Reduce energy consumption in the drying process
Systematic analysis of energy flows in existing dryers. Identification of savings potential through air flow, nozzle or heat recovery measures.
Dryer design for a new coating line
Process design and engineering design of a dryer system for specific product and performance requirements – from concept to detail.
Solve quality problems in the drying process
Analysis of drying errors, uneven drying or product damage. Root cause investigation in the running process with data-driven methodology.
Modernize existing dryer technically
Nozzle conversion, air volume adjustment or integration of new energy systems into existing facilities – without complete rebuilding, but with measurable results.
Start-up and fine-tuning on site
Professional commissioning of dryer systems after new construction or modification. Wet acceptance, performance testing and handover to operations.
Independent technical evaluation of a dryer concept
Neutral assessment of supplier offers, process concepts or technical specifications – as a reliable decision foundation for your project team.
