Strautmann BaleTainer® Horizontal Baler

German engineering makes the Strautmann series of balers a perfect solution for lower-volume operations with limited space and high material turnover. Set-up boxes and packaging waste can be easily crushed and baled in a sustainable, automated process.

High-Performance Baling Where Space Is Limited

Many recycling and manufacturing facilities operate in buildings never designed for modern material recovery systems. REI horizontal balers, including compact containerized options like the Strautmann BaleTainer, are well-suited for tight layouts, indoor installations, and retrofit projects. These systems enable efficient baling with minimal disruption, helping facilities improve recycling performance without expanding their footprint.
