Plastic balers for efficient waste handling

A plastic baler reduces waste volume and makes it simple to handle plastic waste. Free up floor space, cut transportation costs, and keep your workplace organised through effective plastic compaction.

Compress the plastic waste and create savings

In many businesses, plastic waste quickly piles up. This leads to clutter, higher transport costs, and wasted storage space.

A plastic baler solves this by compressing the material into neat, dense bales. This plastic compaction reduces volume by up to 90%, making the waste easier to handle, store, and recycle. You get cleaner work areas, fewer waste collections, and real savings — while also supporting ESG.

Benefits of a plastic compactor

With a plastic compactor, you not only get control of the waste – you optimise the entire flow around handling, storage, and disposal.
It creates a better overview in everyday life, makes the workplace more efficient, and strengthens the overall operation of the company.
  • More space: Plastic waste is often bulky and unmanageable. A plastic baler reduces the volume by up to 90%, freeing up valuable floor space in the warehouse, back room, or production line.
  • Lower costs: By compacting the plastic waste, the need for containers and collections is minimized. This reduces your disposal expenses and enables you to sell the compact bales for recycling – especially for clean and sorted plastic.
  • Safe waste handling: Plastic on the floor can create clutter and pose a safety risk. With a plastic baler, the waste is kept together, keeping work areas clean, organized, and safer. You also eliminate the manual work of cutting plastic into pieces.
  • Efficient waste handling and mandatory sorting: A plastic baler helps you sort correctly and handle waste efficiently – including meeting documentation requirements and environmental conditions such as CSRD reporting or ESG initiatives.
  • Waste monitoring: Make your machines even smarter with BRA-IN – Bramidan’s IoT platform that provides real-time insights into your waste data. With remote support, notifications, and automatic status updates.

When you choose a used plastic baler from Bramidan, you get a machine that has been thoroughly tested to ensure reliability, safety, and high performance. Enjoy a lower price without compromising on quality or efficiency.

Function and use of a plastic baler

The primary function of the plastic baler is to transform loose and unwieldy plastic waste into compact bales. This is achieved through an efficient press cycle, where a hydraulic press plate compresses the material in a closed chamber.

Plastic balers are used in a wide range of industries – including industrial, logistics, retail, and food production – where plastic constitutes a significant portion of the waste volume. By installing a plastic baler close to where the waste is generated, you can streamline your internal workflows and avoid unnecessary transportation around the building.

FAQ: Most common questions and answers

What to do with large amounts of plastic waste in companies?

Companies with a lot of plastic packaging – e.g. plastic film, stretch film, big bags or plastic crates – often face challenges with storage and disposal. If the quantities are large and the waste accumulates quickly, a waste compactor is the right solution. It can compress large amounts of loose plastic directly into the container and minimises the need for frequent collection.

For smaller to medium amounts of plastic, we recommend a baler instead, which compresses the plastic into compact bales.

What should I do with a lot of plastic waste in my company?

If you have large quantities of plastic waste such as plastic film, stretch film, big bags, or plastic pallets in your company, you should consider a professional waste solution. At Bramidan, we typically recommend:

  • Compactor: Ideal for companies with a lot of plastic waste. Compacts large quantities directly into a container, reducing the number of emptying cycles and saving on transportation costs.
  • Baler: Suitable if you want to separate the plastic and sell it as recyclable material. It compresses the plastic into compact bales that are easy to store and handle.

The choice depends on the type of waste, quantity, and where the waste is generated in the company. We offer free advice and a tailored solution.

Can I use the same machine for cardboard and plastic?
Yes, you can easily use the same machine for both cardboard and plastic, but not at the same time. We recommend that you sort your waste and make separate bales. Use recycling racks to sort and collect soft plastic waste while you compact cardboard. When you have collected enough bags of plastic, compact a bale.
What does the legislation say about sorting and handling of plastic waste?

According to EU legislation, companies must sort plastic waste at the source and ensure proper handling.

  • With a baler, you can easily sort and document recyclable fractions.
  • With a compactor, you can manage large quantities of plastic waste without compromising on waste registration and storage requirements.

Bramidan offers guidance to ensure that your company complies with the current waste regulations – now and in the future.

How can I compact soft plastic?
You can compact soft plastic in all our balers. The choice of machine depends on the volumes and shape of your material. Soft plastic is a valuable recyclable material. It can be found in many different products, but the majority is found as stretch film or plastic wrapping for goods delivered on pallets, soft carrier bags, and bin liners. The price for a bale of soft plastic depends on the purity of the material, meaning the better sorted the higher value.
How can our company save money on plastic waste management?

You can save money in several ways – and the choice of machine is crucial:  

  • A baler reduces volume and enables the sale of sorted plastic waste as recyclable material. At the same time, fewer collections are required.
  • A compactor significantly reduces transport costs by consolidating large quantities of loose waste into fewer containers.

Both solutions free up space and provide a more efficient waste flow.
