Compactors minimise the space taken up by waste or recycling materials in your waste room by compressing them with augers or a ram into either scattered or densely packed forms.

ECO Multipress

Advanced, eco-friendly compactor with technology for efficient waste management and data tracking.

Integrated Compactors

Versatile waste management combines collection, compaction, and disposal in one efficient system.

Stationary Compactor

A robust, fixed-location compactor is designed for continuous, heavy-duty waste processing.

Waste Collection and Feeding
After waste is collected from bins, chutes, or other waste sources, deposited into the compactor through hoppers systems.
Compaction
A hydraulic-powered ram will compress the waste, reducing its volume by pushing force on the material, effectively compacting it into the storage container.
Waste Storage and Transport
Once compacted, the waste is stored in the container, which can hold significantly more waste due to the reduced volume. The container can be easily transported to disposal sites.
Container Removal and Disposal
The compacted waste is transported to a landfill or recycling facility, optimising disposal efficiency and reducing labour and transportation costs.

Compaction and Grinding
A rotating auger or compaction system compresses and grinds the waste, reducing its volume and improving waste density.
Storage and Transportation
The compacted waste is stored in the container, which can hold a greater amount of waste due to the reduced volume. The container can be easily transported for disposal or recycling.
Container Removal and Disposal
When the container is full, it is removed. The compacted waste is then transported to a landfill or recycling facility, optimising waste management efficiency.

Waste Collection and Identification
Bins are collected and identified by unique user data or RFID tags, ensuring the polluter pays principle.
Weighing and Data Capture
The MultiPress accurately weighs each bin, capturing weight and user data, and logs this information to a secure database
Data Transmission and Reporting
Transaction details, including timestamps, weights, and user information, are transmitted to an online database for tracking and analysis.
Monitoring and Optimisation
Waste management operations are monitored through the database, allowing businesses to generate reports and improve waste separation and collection efficiency.

What types of waste can a compactor handle?

Compactors are versatile and can handle various types of waste, including general waste, recyclables, cardboard, plastics, and food waste. Specific compactors, such as the ECO Multipress, are designed for efficient recycling and data tracking, making them suitable for more specialised waste management tasks.

How often should I perform maintenance on my compactor?

Regular maintenance is crucial to keep your compactor running efficiently. Depending on usage levels, we recommend scheduling maintenance checks every few months.

Elephants Foot provides comprehensive aftercare services to ensure your compactor operates smoothly and to address potential issues before they lead to costly repairs. For maintenance assistance, please contact our team.

What are the benefits of using a compactor for my business?

Compactors help reduce the volume of waste, which leads to fewer collections, lower transportation costs, and improved space efficiency. Additionally, compacting waste reduces environmental impact by minimising the frequency of trips needed for disposal, resulting in fewer carbon emissions. Contact us to request a quote.
