Polystyrene Recyclers in Stow, Ohio installs a Runi SK-370 densifier for processing XPS foam board and dust.

"There was some question as to whether or not we would be able to compact this material in a block form or have to go with a cylindrical form and as you can see, it compacts into stackable blocks without a problem. It does a great job with not only our XPS but also EPS and EPE Foam. Feel free to bring anyone around to show it off, we’d be happy to be your showplace."

Ohio Baler really held our hand along the way."

“With our new Harris Gorilla our bale weights have increased up to 1,700 – 1,750 Lbs. The new design of the Harris Gorilla has allowed for easy use and adjustments to be made on the machine.

The heavier bale weights have produced a greater return on investments for our company.”

JVC Metals installed a new Harris Badger Two Ram Baler and KWS Steel Belt Conveyor for their nonferrous operation in Oak Hill, OH.

The way we handle material now has changed and opened up new markets for us. With the Harris Badger we can ship bales anywhere, and cross into new markets as opposed to one market selling loose material.”

The wire tier on this machine has decreased labor and increased production. We had an Excel baler before the Harris Badger - no comparison. We are more than satisfied!”
