Baler of the month – September – RWM 500

In this second ‘baler of the month’ feature, we quiz Riverside Waste Machinery’s MD Jonathan Oldfield on the key features and stand-out benefits of the RWM500 mill size baler.

Describe this machine in one sentence:

A powerful mill size baling press which produces large bales that maximise revenue yield, load capacities and transport efficiencies.

What type of organisations use it?

This is a popular machine with industrial waste contractors and recyclers, however it is also used by warehouses, manufacturers, warehouses, distribution outlets, prisons and hospitals. It’s great for anyone handling a large volume of packaging ‘waste’.

What materials can this waste baler handle?

The RWM500 is typically used as a cardboard baler or plastic baler. It isn’t just a great machine in terms of capacity. It can also handle bulky recyclables with ease. 

What bale weights can it achieve?

Bales of up to 550kg.

And the bale dimensions?

1200 x 1500 x 760mm

What consumables are required to produce bales with this machine?

Overall we’d recommend baler wire – the strongest method for securing mill size bales – but clients can also use baler tape, a lower cost, higher quality alternative.

Is a warranty included?

Yes, a 12 month full parts and labour warranty.

Describe this machine in 3 words:

Robust & revenue-generating
