Balers and Compactors

Engineered for Efficiency, Built for the Demands of Modern Waste Management

Innovative Baling & Compaction Solutions by Hansa

At Hansa, we take pride in offering one of the most comprehensive ranges of baling machines and compactors on the market. Manufactured to the highest standards, our balers are engineered with precision and can be tailored to meet the specific demands of your operation. We are also proud to be the official UK and Ireland distributor for Avermann channel press balers and compactors—giving our customers access to market-leading technology. Whether you’re managing light commercial waste or large-scale industrial materials, Hansa provides robust, reliable, and customisable solutions for every stage of the recycling process.

Twin Ram Balers

Hansa manufactures robust, high-quality twin ram balers designed for the demanding needs of the waste and recycling sector. Built in the UK and fully customisable, these machines are engineered to handle high volumes of materials including RDF, SRF, plastics, PET, cardboard, and paper.

Perfect for waste transfer stations and material recovery facilities (MRFs), Hansa’s twin ram balers deliver exceptional throughput—up to 40 tonnes per hour. Material can be loaded via conveyor, loading shovel, or selector grab. These fully automatic systems produce dense, mill-size bales weighing up to 1.4 tonnes, helping you maximise efficiency, reduce handling costs, and increase profitability.

Semi-Automatic Balers

Hansa’s semi-automatic balers are built for businesses handling significant volumes of recyclable materials such as cardboard, paper, shredded plastic, rigid plastics, plastic film, and PET. These machines are a perfect fit for factories, recycling facilities, and distribution centres—especially where vertical balers fall short due to labour intensity and limited capacity.

Thanks to their horizontal design and fixed compaction surface, our semi-automatic balers produce exceptionally dense bales, often outperforming channel balers in terms of compaction. With throughput rates of up to 3 tonnes per hour, our range is available in three distinct series to suit a variety of operational needs.

Channel Balers

The Hansa fully automatic channel baler is a powerful and adaptable solution for high-throughput environments such as waste handling facilities, retail operations, and logistics hubs. Engineered for seamless integration with internal automation systems—including conveyors, chutes, and bin lifts—this baler efficiently processes large volumes of material while maintaining consistent bale quality and maximising operational efficiency.

Waste Compactors

Hansa’s range of industrial waste compactors is designed to significantly reduce the volume of general and recyclable waste, making waste management cleaner, more efficient, and more cost-effective. Ideal for commercial and industrial environments, our compactors handle a wide variety of waste types—from mixed recyclables and packaging to residual waste. By compressing materials into manageable, space-saving units, Hansa compactors reduce the frequency of waste collections and optimise site cleanliness, while offering robust build quality and user-friendly operation.
