Pallets and Industrial Packaging
Pallets and Industrial Packaging
Easily and reliably convert scrap pallets and industrial packaging into marketable wood fiber with WSM's industry proven, low maintenance pallet grinders.
Industry Specific information
Materials Processed
Materials processed include scrap pallets, deck boards, stringers, short blocks, trim ends, edgings, panel scrap, plywood, and other industrial packaging waste.
Nails and repair plates are no problem for WSM pallet grinders. Optional metal removal is highly effective and helps to maximize finished fiber value.
Equipment Used
WSM's Horizontal Grinders deliver high volume, singe pass reduction as part of a fully engineered system providing metered feed of material into the grinding chamber for reduced horsepower requirements and allowing for smoother, safer operation.
When a high-speed grinder is too much and a low-speed shredder isn't enough, WSM's Mid-Speed Shredder provides the best of both worlds. The unique Mid-Speed shredder provides the shredding power of larger high-speed units with greatly reduced fines, noise, vibration, and power consumption
Hopper Fed, Low RPM Grinders with slow speed cutting action provide low noise, low dust, and low horsepower operation for lower volume processing. Easy installation and low maintenance for lower operating costs.
Industry Challenges
As more states enact laws requiring solid waste to be source reduced, recycled, or composted, more companies are enacting Zero Waste policies. Evidence of that includes the dumping and disposing costs of pallets that have become more and more expensive. Depending on where you are in the country, the price has risen 3-4X in the last three years. WSM's high speed, high volume grinders, mid-speed shredders, and low speed, lower volume grinders can help facilities meet the Zero Waste goal and turn an ever-increasing expense into a marketable fiber.
The abrasive nature of pallets and industrial packaging demands rugged, reliable equipment designed and built for these unique requirements. WSM has the most complete range of grinder styles that are just that. These grinders are the easiest to maintain and are constructed with the largest components for long-term, reliable operation. From stand-alone Low RPM Grinders to Mid-Speed Shredders to Titan Horizontal Grinding Systems - we can match the right grinder for your facility.
