T
operating seven Presona balers, enabling it to process more corrugated cardboard, plastics and other waste materials as it expands the capacity at three of its recycling plants in Sweden. Ragn-Sells bought its first
wo new Presona LP 85 VH2 balers are helping Swedish waste management company
Presona baler in 2006, following a contract win with paper recycling specialist Pressretur. The company considered various suppliers, but opted for a Presona LP 80 VH1, which is still working well today. As the company grew it needed higher capacity balers. The impressive performance of the first Presona, which had proved to be hard-working, stable and reliable, simplified the selection process.
The initial baler has been refurbished and is used at the
company’s Örebro plant which has a lower throughput. Lars Nordström of Ragn-Sells said: “It was the simplest and best solution to move the old baler there. It has been properly serviced and parts had been replaced as they wore out, so it works really well and has many
years of service left in it. And of course re-using is the most efficient form of recycling, which is something we are specialists in.” More information from Presona
