New mobile baling solution reduces the risk of landfill fires
Each year, there are around 500 reported incidents of landfill fires in the UK, causing huge environmental and financial damage. Recently, several European manufacturers along with earthmoving company, Oosterveld, based in the Netherlands, have collaborated to develop a unique waste compaction solution to help prevent these fires igniting.
Oosterveld approached the Avermann Group (Netherlands) to find a solution that would improve fire safety and space at their customer’s landfill site in Hengelo, Netherlands. They joined forces with waste compaction experts, CK International and Finnish-based, Cross Wrap to develop a unique mobile baling system and conveyor - offering the customer greater flexibility. CK International used their automatic twin ram as the base for this new product and in order to have an integrated plastic wrapping system, Cross Wrap customised their unit, also making it mobile.
