Australia continues to face challenges with tyre disposal as millions of tyres reach the end of their life each year. Landfill isn’t a sustainable option, and stockpiles increase fire risks. Businesses looking to improve tyre recycling outcomes can benefit from using a tyre baler, a machine that compresses tyres into dense bundles. At Elephant’s Foot, we’ve seen how balers help companies recycle tyres more efficiently while keeping costs and storage needs under control.
A tyre baler is a specialised machine that compacts tyres into stable bales. The tyre baling process uses hydraulic pressure for tyre compression, binding them tightly for storage and transport. This makes the material easier to load into a tyre recycling machine or other recycling equipment. For facilities exploring how to improve how are tyres recycled, balers provide a consistent and safe flow of material through the recycling chain.
Elephant’s Foot offers dedicated solutions, including our Tyre Baler, which is built to handle tyres efficiently at scale.
Loose tyres take up valuable yard or warehouse space. A baler compresses them into uniform blocks, giving businesses a reliable tyre storage solution.
Compact bales allow trucks to carry more tyres per trip. This results in fewer journeys, making the process more economical and a pathway to cost-effective recycling.
Recycling plants often use a tyre shredding machine or tyre shredder machine. Feeding baled tyres into these systems improves handling, speeds up operations, and strengthens the overall tire recycling process. Elephant’s Foot also supports recycling workflows with equipment such as Augers & Compactors for broader waste handling.
For tyre retailers, auto shops, and recyclers, baling cuts tire disposal costs and reduces the labour needed to move loose tyres.
Stricter laws mean businesses must handle tyre recycling Australia responsibly. Using a baler demonstrates recycling compliance and shows commitment to sustainable waste solutions.
Loose tyres can roll or collapse unexpectedly. By compacting them into bales, businesses improve site safety, create a cleaner work environment, and reinforce an eco-friendly business image. Elephant’s Foot provides ongoing Service & Care to keep this equipment running smoothly.
