“Our waste handling solution wasn’t optimal before we bought the baler. Our employees had to walk outside with the cardboard, which was time consuming and inefficient because we had the cardboard picked up every single week. Now, with the baler from Bramidan, the amount of pickups is reduced to once every month.” tells Nelsy Perez from Herko.

Like all other Bramidan Balers, Herko’s B5 Wide Baler has a GSM modem installed. This wireless monitoring system operates on the cell phone network, which allows Bramidan’s service department to monitor the baler at any time, and be notified if the machine is not operating correctly. The GSM solution has also been implemented in Herko’s case. Here, the system notifies Herko’s waste hauler by email, whenever 12 bales have been made and are ready for pickup.

The B5 Wide is a stockroom baler which has been constructed specifically for companies with smaller amounts of recyclables, but who still need a machine to handle bulky materials. The machine is characterized by a wide filling opening of 40 inches, which is an advantage when handling larger cardboard boxes.
