If your business is dealing with a constant influx of cardboard boxes, inefficient waste management can slow down operations and take up valuable space. The best box compactors donโt just crush boxes, they optimise workflow, reduce labour, and improve sustainability. At Compact & Bale, we offer a range of compactors designed to meet different business needs, ensuring that waste disposal is quick, cost-effective, and hassle-free.
For businesses handling large volumes of cardboard waste, speed and efficiency are critical. A compactor with a wide infeed chamber allows whole boxes to be disposed of instantly, eliminating the need for staff to manually flatten and sort waste. This is ideal for warehouses, distribution centres, and manufacturing plants where waste can pile up quickly.
The Model N roro compactor is built for precisely these conditions. With powerful twin cylinders and a straight push ram, it effortlessly compresses large volumes of cardboard in just 42 seconds per cycle. This means no waiting around and no build-up of unnecessary waste, even in harsh weather conditions if the compactor is stationed outdoors.
Compact Solutions for Small Sites
If space is at a premium, you need a small yet powerful cardboard box compactor. The CB1250SS short static compactor is an excellent choice in this regard, measuring just over 2m in length while delivering a 25-tonne press force. This ensures effective box disposal in high-traffic environments, while reducing the need for staff to break down boxes manually, which limits injury and strain. Its smaller carbon footprint also means reduced energy consumption without sacrificing performance.
For businesses needing a larger infeed but still requiring a compact footprint, the CB1500 static compactor offers a 1500 x 1500mm infeed. This allows for easier loading in tight spaces, and provides the power needed to handle large cardboard waste volumes. With a robust design and up to 38 tonnes of pressure, this box compactor is ideal for sites with difficult access or requiring flexible waste management solutions.
Energy Efficiency in Waste Management
For businesses focused on reducing energy consumption and lowering their carbon footprint, the SVS ‘Electric Drive’ static screw compactor is an eco-friendly alternative. This cutting-edge machine uses up to 50% less energy than traditional compactors while still maintaining high compaction efficiency. Its quiet operation makes it particularly useful for environments such as shopping centres, corporate buildings, and sites where noise reduction is a priority.
Heavy-Duty Cardboard Compacting
Not all cardboard is the same! Some businesses deal with particularly tough or high-density boxes that require much higher power to compress efficiently. The CB1500 static compactor with bin lift offers up to 38 tonnes of compaction force, making light work of even the most rigid cardboard materials. Its versatility allows businesses to tailor their compaction process to match their waste output, maximising efficiency and minimising collection costs and labour.
The Right Compactor for Your Business
At Compact & Bale, we understand that no two businesses have the same waste management needs (which is why so many companies are left floundering at trying to take control of their waste processes!). Thatโs why we provide a variety of industrial cardboard compactors tailored to different industries, site requirements, and operational demands. Whether you need a high-capacity solution for a distribution centre, an energy-efficient model for an environmentally responsible business, or a compact unit for a small site, we have the right solution for you.
