Pneumatic cardboard balers
Powered solely by compressed air, the pneumatic baler series is a highly efficient solution; thanks to their patented EcoDrive valves, the cardboard balers maintain a constant pressure on the material without consuming additional energy. The pneumatic technology also eliminates the risk of oil spills and contamination by eliminating the need for hydraulic oil in the machinery.

Electrical cardboard baler
Our assortment of electrical cardboard balers has a very low height and a high compression force. As with the pneumatic series, the electrical series is devoid of hydraulic fluid and there is no chance of cross-contamination. Besides, a “stay and hold” function ensures that the material remains under pressure for optimal compaction.

Hydraulic cardboard baler
If you’re looking for a heavy-duty cardboard baler, a hydraulic system may be the best option. The large machines are capable of handling significant quantities of cardboard, and some of them create mill-sized cardboard bales suitable for recycling.

What is a baling machine for cardboard?
A cardboard baler reduces your cardboard and plastic waste. The placement of the baler machine at the site of waste generation optimizes workflows, as it eliminates the need to transport cardboard several times per day.
Instead of having to manually flatten cardboard cartons, the cardboard baler does it for you. A baling machine is also known as a cardboard press machine or a cardboard compactor. Mil-tek’s cardboard balers feature innovative pneumatic technology that employs compressed air to press and release the pressing plate. This renders our devices quick, potent, and highly efficient, with low power consumption and noise level. If your company produces small or large quantities of cardboard, the best method to break down boxes is with a baler machine. In addition to electric and hydraulic machines, we offer machines for every application.
The benefits of utilizing a cardboard baler
Does your outdoor container overflow with cardboard quickly? If that is the case, you will likely incur fees for frequent collection of full containers. Nonetheless, because the cardboard is not adequately compressed, the containers are frequently “filled” with a great deal of air.
From the moment a cardboard press is installed, the following significant changes take effect:
- If you position the cardboard baler where the cardboard waste is generated, you can load the cardboard directly into the baler, saving a great deal of time and manpower effort on waste management
- There is no need to manually fold cardboard cartons because they can be placed straight into the cardboard baler
- You no longer need to transport or carry cardboard waste outside multiple times per day
- You are not required to pay for air collection, and your compressed cardboard bales become a marketable product
How to use a cardboard baler
In a sense, cardboard baling is for everyone. You merely feed cardboard into the baler and pull the “press handle”. Mil-tek balers for cardboard are user-friendly and always come with animated user manuals so that even new employees can quickly learn how to operate them.
Mil-tek devices are EN16500 certified, so cardboard baler safety is of the utmost importance. We have been producing devices for 30 years with ZERO claims. When the cardboard baler’s chamber is filled, you manually attach cardboard baler strapping and then bale out.
How much does a bale of cardboard weigh?
That depends on the size of the cardboard baler. If your amount of cardboard is limited, a mini cardboard baler like the A102 would fit your need. A large cardboard baler is necessary for bigger manufacturing companies that produce a lot of packaging waste. An industrial cardboard baler like the mill size cardboard baler or the A509 would be a good choice here. So obviously, the bigger the baler, the bigger weight of the bale. As an example, the A102 baler produces up to 40 kg cardboard bales, and we have machines that produce bales of up to 450 kg of cardboard.
Collection of baled cardboard
How much money can you get for a cardboard bale, and how are bales collected? Depending on your geographical location and the quantity of the bale, the price per bale of cardboard varies. But regardless of the cardboard bale price, if you do bale your cardboard, you can convert your refuse into an income rather than a cost. In terms of cardboard bale collection, many paper and cardboard recycling companies will take up your cardboard bales and pay you for them. You can also employ a local waste collection company to regularly collect your bales of cardboard at top market prices.
Cost of cardboard balers
Now, regarding the outstanding question: how much does a cardboard baler cost? The price of a cardboard baler depends on the price level of each cardboard baler manufacturer as well as the type of cardboard baler that best meets your requirements. Mil-tek has a cardboard baler that fits your workplace, working environment, and work requirements, regardless of the size and scope of your operation.
