Innnovative Recycling Technology

Metal Waste

Metal waste such as aluminium cans, steel food cans, paint tins, and light gauge drums are a common by product in sectors like manufacturing, catering, and automotive. While these materials are fully recyclable, their shape and strength often make them awkward to store and expensive to transport in loose form. Without compaction, bins and skips fill quickly, leading to frequent collections and higher waste handling costs. Managing metal waste efficiently at the point of generation is key to reducing volume, improving site safety, and maximising the value of recyclable metals.

 

Below, you'll find a selection of our machines suitable for various types and volumes of metal waste, helping you choose the right solution for your site.

Stop Paying for Air Removal

Maximise Container Loads

From small tins to large drums, Bergmann Direct offers a range of compactors designed to reduce volume, improve safety, and maximise recycling value.

Bergmann Direct provides tailored compaction equipment for a variety of light metal waste streams. For smaller items such as aluminium cans, steel food tins, and containers up to 30 litres, our pneumatic can crusher offers a quick, safe, and easy solution to crush and reduce volume at source. For larger waste items, such as 220 litre drums commonly found in manufacturing and chemical industries, the hydraulic drum crusher efficiently compresses drums, improving storage and transport efficiency.

In environments requiring higher safety standards, Bergmann’s explosion-proof ATEX-rated drum crusher is specifically designed to handle hazardous or flammable metal waste safely, meeting strict regulatory requirements. For mixed or bulky light metals, the versatile Bergmann Roll Packer range can crush and compact these materials directly in open skips or containers, significantly reducing waste volume and lowering disposal costs. These solutions ensure businesses can manage metal waste responsibly and cost-effectively.
