Delivering High-Density Aluminum Can Baling for Tropical Climates and High-Cost Environments
However, local recyclers face several major challenges:
High labor cost and low efficiency
Hot and humid climate causing frequent machine overheating
High electricity prices
Limited plant space, requiring compact balers
High prices for U.S. and EU-brand baling machines
Slow after-sales service due to long shipping times
A recycling center in Panama City had been using an American-brand baler but suffered from:
Low bale density that affected export profits
Frequent overheating during the hot season
High power consumption
High spare parts cost
Long maintenance delays
They needed a tropical-climate-ready, energy-saving cans baler that could increase output and reduce operating costs.
Panama’s temperature stays above 30°C most of the year.
European and American machines often trigger temperature alarms.
