Baling Plastic: a guide to plastic baler machinery
Baling Plastic: a guide to how, why and the machinery needed to bale plastic waste in Australia.
Why bale? And why plastic balers?
Manufacture plants, retail, and warehouses – what do they all share?
They all produce vast amounts of plastic waste; their storage and disposal can cause considerable inconvenience and a significant cost for the company. Optimize your business and improve costs by using plastic balers to compact your plastic waste.
Regardless of your sector and industry, your business might produce huge amounts of plastic and managing it is quite challenging. Unoptimized management of plastic waste has a detrimental effect on our ecosystem and directly affects the bottom line of your business.
Does your business produce vast amounts of waste from plastic packaging, foil, or PET bottles? Is this pilling up in your backroom, warehouse, or hall, making it difficult for employees to operate and take up space unnecessarily? How do you handle the transport and disposal of these waste fractions? With a plastic baler machine from Miltek, you can avoid all of these problems. Better again, you can find these beauties all across Australia.
Here’s how to know what kind of plastic baler you need
A correctly chosen plastic baler machine can reduce the volume of waste by almost 90%. By equipping your business with a plastic baler, you can minimize the waste of valuable workspace, improve your employees’ time on disposal, and lower waste management costs.
What kind of plastic waste goes into your baler?
Plastic baler machines allow you to compact many different types of plastic waste – not only PET bottles but also soft plastic (LDPE), hard plastic (HDPE), plastic drums, and ‘big bags’ or ‘bulk bags’.
FOIL (LDPE)
Plastic foil is the most widespread type of plastic. It can be found in almost all commercial, industrial, and service sectors. Plastic foil is often used to secure pallet products, and it’s pretty expensive.
If the plastic foil is a waste fraction produced by your business, a plastic baler machine from Miltek is the optimal solution.
PLASTIC CONTAINERS AND PET BOTTLES
Plastic containers and PET bottles are some of the most challenging problems the food-service industry faces. Plastic balers with a suitable large feed opening and high pressing force can help you with that.
HARD PLASTIC (HDPE)
PVC is a type of plastic found in TVs and computers and various electronics and accessories. To handle this type of material, you need a large baler machine with very tough and durable construction and a high pressing force.
