The unique BALA round-bale technology, pioneered in Sweden and with over 100 installations worldwide, is the link between the various waste technology categories in use now for the handling and disposal of Municipal Solid Waste, offering significant advantages in terms of cost efficiency and environmental safety.
Typical applications where the advantages of the round baling method is utilized is in context with handling /transportation of MSW as well as industrial waste and agricultural rest products.
Ready for recovery
The waste is only covered with a plastic film, which is easy to slit open. No steel wire is used for binding. No need for any form of material processing prior to incineration.
Clean and odourless
No problem with storage outdoors all the year round - for years.
Small and rounded
Compacted waste requires a smaller storage space and permits more rational transportation. No vulnerable corners that can break during handling.
Anonymous
The plastic cover does not attract birds or rodents.
No air inside
Due to an air-free environment, waste contents are kept inert, therefore no decomposition, risk of gas build-up or spontaneous combustion.
Totally sealed
The energy content of the waste is maintained. Leakage and littering are effectively prohibited.
Environmentally compatible
The net and the film are made of recyclable polythene.
