Cardboard is a tough, practical and versatile material that is used for a wide range of different purposes. It is crucial to companies and organisations of different types in various commercial sectors, enabling the safe packing, storage and transportation of goods and materials.
One key advantage of cardboard over other materials is that it’s relatively straightforward to recycle. As a result, more companies are moving towards the latest cardboard packaging to help reduce their carbon footprint.
Tackling the cardboard challenge
While cardboard is practical, it also presents a range of challenges for businesses. Storage, handling and transportation of cardboard all need to be handled efficiently. Cardboard materials can quickly get out of hand taking over storage facilities and creating problems.
One solution to this problem is to use a cardboard baler. Sometimes known as a cardboard recycling machine, these are simple yet effective pieces of machinery that allow companies to reduce the impact of cardboard waste. A cardboard recycling baler takes cardboard and significantly reduces it in volume, pressing it into easy-to-handle bales. These are regular in size and can be stored more efficiently, ensuring that your space is optimised.
Crucially, they facilitate the easy transportation and recycling of cardboard materials. If you are paying to have your cardboard removed and recycled by volume, recycled cardboard bale prices are significantly lower in volume.
Why invest in a cardboard recycling baler?
Cardboard balers provide a versatile solution for a range of different requirements. For organisations that produce significant volumes of cardboard, a horizontal cardboard baler is often the optimal solution. These can handle significant quantities of cardboard quickly and efficiently and are particularly useful in warehouses, logistic operations and larger retail settings. Despite their size and capacity, they only require a single user to operate them.
If space is more limited, then a vertical cardboard baler is an effective solution. These are smaller in size and have less capacity than horizontal balers, while still providing efficient baling of large quantities of commercial cardboard. Typically, vertical balers will be used in workshops, retail and office spaces. Vertical balers can also be more affordable if your budget is restricted.
By recycling bales of cardboard your company can save money while meeting your environmental responsibilities.
