Pressing Plastics with HSM Baling Presses
Plastic is an indispensable material in industry and in daily life – light, durable and can be used for many things. But how can it be disposed of in an environmentally and resource friendly way? The answer is recycling – and this is where HSM comes in.
HSM offers powerful solutions for the efficient compaction of plastics. Whether these are for foils, PET bottles, hard plastics such as housings or even foams and polystyrene – HSM presses significantly reduce the volume of material as well as providing optimum preparation for the recycling process.
Your material, our solution - tailor-made by HSM

Optimum compaction of hard plastics - with the HSM V-Press 860 S
Hard plastics present particular challenges for compaction. Due to the material’s high stability, standard baling presses are often not sufficient to compact these materials efficiently.
With the HSM V-Press 860 S, HSM offers a specially developed solution which was designed particularly for this challenge. The machine impresses with its particularly robust construction, high pressing power and an optimized pressing performance which enables reliable bales to be formed, even with resilient plastics.

You would like to press polystyrene?
Due to its volume, polystyrene is a logistical challenge – but HSM baling presses are the optimum solution. They compress the material efficiently into manageable, stackable bales, thereby drastically reducing the volume. This saves both storage and transport costs and creates ideal prerequisites for resource-friendly recycling.
Depending on the amount of material, we recommend the HSM V-Press 860 max for larger volumes or the HSM HL 3521 T for particularly bulky material.

Compress HDPE hollow bodies efficiently
with HSM baling presses
Hollow bodies made of HDPE are light, bulky and take up a lot of space – both in storage and transport. The HSM baling presses reliably compress this material into compact, stackable bales. This significantly reduces the volume, lowers disposal and logistics costs and creates ideal prerequisites for resource-friendly recycling. Whether you have canisters, bottles or other LDPE moulded parts: HSM has the solution for your requirements. We will be happy to advise you and find the HSM solution you need.

Compress foils economically
with HSM baling presses
Foils made of LDPE pile up in large quantities in many areas – light but extremely voluminous. HSM’s baling presses compress this material efficiently into compact bales which are easy to store and transport. This saves time, reduces costs and facilitates recycling. Almost all presses in the wide HSM baling press range can compress foils.
