Paper balers – Efficient compaction of paper waste

Optimize your waste management with a paper baler
With a paper baler, you can compress loose paper waste into dense and manageable bales. The machine operates by pressing the material together at high pressure in a closed chamber. The result is that large amounts of waste are reduced to a fraction of their original volume.

Compress various types of paper waste
Paper waste comes in many forms – from light and loosely shredded paper to compact newspaper stacks and sturdy paper bags. What they all have in common is that they quickly take up a lot of space and create unnecessary clutter in work areas. With a paper baler from Bramidan, you can efficiently compress the various types of paper waste into dense, manageable bales – regardless of volume.
Shredded Paper
High-density bales save you space, time, and money — all while contributing to a circular, green economy.


Paper Bags
Empty paper bags are available in various sizes and variations, they can also be lined with plastic or organic material. It requires the right type of machine to compress them effectively.
A paper baler helps you reduce volume, keep the work area tidy, and make waste easier to handle.


Newspapers
Printed materials such as newspapers, catalogs, and brochures quickly take up space and require a paper baler with good compaction force to be collected in dense bales.
For optimal compaction, the newspapers should be loose.


Benefits of a paper baler:
Benefits
- More space: A paper baler can reduce the volume of paper waste by up to 90%, freeing up floor space and creating better visibility in storage and production areas.
- Lower costs: Compacted bales take up less space and require fewer collections. With a Bramidan paper baler, waste management becomes more efficient – and the compacted paper can often be resold for recycling.
- Safe working environment: Loose paper waste creates clutter and increases the risk of accidents. A paper baler keeps the work area tidy and eliminates the need for manual handling.
- Green transition and regulatory compliance: A paper baler helps you comply with current environmental requirements and meet the company’s ESG goals. By sorting and compacting waste correctly, you contribute to lower CO2 emissions and greener operations.
- Waste monitoring: Make your waste management even smarter with BRA-IN – our IoT platform that monitors fill levels and performance, among other things. With remote support, automatic notifications, and real-time data, you gain an overview and control over the entire waste process.

ST3: Reliable Compaction for Large Volumes
The ST3 is built to streamline the handling of high-volume paper waste. Its simplified design with minimal moving parts reduces maintenance needs and ensures consistent, long-lasting performance – perfect for demanding waste operations.
SP-SPN: Stationary screw compactors
Designed for large amounts of paper waste, our SP and SPN stationary screw compactors offer strong, continuous compaction. The separate press unit maximizes container fill levels, helping you cut down on emptying frequency and streamline your waste management process.
Function and use of a paper baler
A paper baler is typically used directly at the waste source – for example, at packing tables, in production areas, or in warehouses. Here, the paper waste is placed in the press chamber, where it is continuously compressed into a bale. When the bale is ready, it is tied and pushed out of the machine.
The machine is easy to operate and requires only minimal training.
Step-by-step guide: How to use a paper baler
- Loading paper: Make sure to remove materials such as plastic and metal from the paper waste before placing it in the machine. This ensures proper compression, a cleaner bale, and better recycling value.
- Compression process: When the chamber is full, activate the press cylinder, which compresses the paper.
- Storage: The finished bale is tied with strapping or wire and pushed out. The bales can be stacked and stored on pallets or directly on the floor, ready for collection.
