Mil-tek baler helps Azad Supermarket minimize trash and costs
A costly challenge for grocery retailers
Azad Supermarket discovered that a Mil-tek cardboard baler is more than just a trash solution – it’s a financial advantage. It enhances efficiency, keeps the store environment neat, and cuts disposal costs while opening the door to recycling revenue.
Optimizing trash solutions at Azad Supermarket
Because incoming goods are typically boxed in cardboard, small supermarkets face ongoing challenges in handling packaging trash.
This not only disrupts important tasks but also influences overall profitability.
Operational challenges caused by cardboard trash
Lack of space: Limited storage meant piles of cardboard quickly took up valuable space, disrupting product stocking, staff movement, and the organization in general.
Time lost: Staff hours are often wasted breaking down boxes and moving cardboard instead of supporting customers and driving sales.
Cleanliness and appearance: Excess cardboard created a cluttered look, harming customer impressions, and it also posed hygiene risks by attracting pests.
Cardboard baler
To deal with its cardboard trash stream, Azad Supermarket invested in a Mil-tek 2306 baler – the predecessor of the Mil-tek the A406.
Since installation, conditions at the supermarket have improved with several improvements such as:
- Significant volume reduction through tightly compacted bales
- Lower disposal costs thanks to fewer collections
- Staff hours redirected to customer service and other priorities instead of trash handling
- A cleaner, more organized site reduces accident risks from trash management
- Support for compliance with recycling and trash regulations
