Pneumatic Cardboard Balers

Compact air-powered balers!

Driven entirely by compressed air, Mil-tek’s unique range of pneumatic balers offers efficiency and flexibility in handling cardboard trash.

With a slim design that takes up very little floor space, these balers can be hooked up directly to an airline or paired with a standalone compressor, making them an adaptable choice for nearly any facility.

Perfect for small to greater amounts of cardboard trash, they provide a smart solution across a wide variety of facilities.

Equipped with Mil-tek’s patented EcoDrive valves, the pneumatic cardboard balers deliver steady, reliable pressure that ensures consistent compression while keeping energy consumption low.

In contrast to hydraulic balers, Mil-tek’s pneumatic systems require no hydraulic oil, significantly lowering the potential for spills and workplace contamination.

This means Pneumatic balers are cleaner, safer, and easier-to-maintain for managing trash.

Cardboard baler FAQ:

What is a cardboard baler, and how does it work?

A cardboard baler is a machine designed to press large amounts of cardboard into neat, compact bales for easier recycling. To use it, sheets or boxes of cardboard are placed inside the baler’s chamber. A powerful ram then pushes down, compressing the material into a dense, manageable block. Once the chamber reaches capacity, the bale is securely tied and removed, ready to be transported for recycling. Looking for further information? Check out this guide How does a cardboard baler work“.

How does a baler and a compactor differ?

While both machines deal with bulky cardboard, they serve different purposes. A compactor squeezes the cardboard down to make it take up less room in your facility. A baler compresses the cardboard and then secures it into tidy bales that are easy to stack, move, and recycle. Learn more in our guide: “What’s the Difference Between a Baler and a Compactor?

Can compacted cardboard bales be sold?

Absolutely, you can sell cardboard bales once they’re compacted. Recycling companies and waste handlers often buy them since they’re easy to process and recycle into new products. Want to know more? Check out our article: “Can You Get Money for Cardboard?

What types of cardboard can be baled?

You can put nearly all kinds of cardboard in a baler, including boxes, sheets, and tubes. Just make sure to keep out anything that’s wet, laminated, or dirty, since those decrease the recycling value. Learn more in our guide: “What Type of Cardboard Should Be Placed in the Baler?
