Leader in compaction and baling solutions

Orwak is a world leader in compaction, baling and briquetting solutions for solid waste material at source. Ever since 1971 we have concentrated on doing what we do best: designing, developing and manufacturing high-performance systems that have set the standard for cost-effective solid waste recycling or disposal. Orwak offers a comprehensive range of waste compactors, balers and Brickman briquetting presses, which contributes to making waste management more profitable.

We are a Swedish company with representatives located around the world. Orwak is wholly owned by Tomra, a leading global player in providing integrated solutions for recovering and recycling used packaging.

Our company is truly dedicated to environmental care. It is the reason why we exist! In a world of commerce that generates mountains of waste material, our solutions represent an indispensable link at the very beginning of the waste management chain. Orwak’s compaction, baling and briquetting solutions make a significant contribution to efficient waste management, sustainable business practices, the wellbeing of employees and the compliance with environmental regulations. The benefits gained in each of these areas ultimately translate into financial rewards that make compaction at source a very worthwhile investment. Orwak’s ten times less gives you ten times more!

In 2007 Orwak introduced “the silent family” – three new balers! One significant feature of the new models is the silent operation with a noise level of only 59.5 dB (A) for model 3410. To put those figures into perspective, the sound level of a normal conversation is 55 dB and that is the approximate recommended sound level in an environment, where tasks like assembly, packaging and sorting are performed. In spring 2008 Orwak introduced another new feature! Two models with sliding door now come with an autostart function as a standard. It allows the balers to start compacting the material when the door closes. The sliding door and the autostart offer yet another advantage in environments where large amounts of waste are generated or where the baler is operated intensely during a specific time of the day.

“In October 2008 Orwak launched the big baler Orwak 3610. It is the largest and strongest front loading baler in our assortment. With a press force of 50 ton it generates commercial high density bales that weigh up to 550 kg. In December 2008 the baler family got another addition. Orwak 3105 and 3110 are the newest and the smallest front loaded balers in the assortment.
