Argentina's recycling industry is rapidly shifting toward automation, and ENERPAT has recently completed the installation of an Auto-Tie Cardboard Compactor Baler for a major waste-recycling enterprise in Buenos Aires. This customer—one of the region's fastest-growing commercial recyclers—found us through Google after searching “cardboard compactor baler”. Their old equipment could no longer support a production demand exceeding 10 tons per hour, and rising labor costs made semi-manual baling unsustainable. They urgently needed a solution that was faster, safer, and more efficient.
After a detailed technical evaluation, ENERPAT recommended the flagship HBA100-110110 industrial waste baler, a fully automatic horizontal baling system engineered for high-volume cardboard, paper, and plastic waste. The installation has now become one of ENERPAT's representative sites in Argentina, where potential buyers can book a visit to see the machine running in real production.
Customer Pain Points: Why Automation Became Essential in Argentina
The Argentine recycler faced three critical operational challenges:
1. Rising labor costs & outdated machines
Manual sorting and semi-automatic balers required constant staffing. Labor costs in Argentina have risen sharply in the past decade, making fully automated equipment the only sustainable long-term solution.
2. Insufficient capacity for 10 t/h production
Their previous machine stalled at peak load, limiting throughput during seasonal waste surges. A continuous-feed automatic cardboard baler ensures consistent output with minimal operator involvement.
3. Need for standardized, export-grade bales
Downstream buyers—including paper mills and plastic recyclers—require clean, dense, uniform bales. The Auto-Tie Cardboard Compactor Baler provides auto-tying, consistent bale density, and seamless integration into existing sorting lines.
ENERPAT provided a complete, fast-deployment solution—from model selection to installation guidance—which enabled the customer to resume full-capacity operations immediately.

HBA100-110110 Industrial Waste Baler: Technical Configuration (Argentina Model)
Model: HBA-100-110110
Bale Size: 1100 × 1100 × L mm
Bale Weight: 800–1100 kg (cardboard)
Press Force: 100 tons
Motor Power: 45 kW
Machine Size: 8560 × 3950 × 4550 mm
Output Capacity: 7–12 t/h
Operation: Fully automatic (auto-feeding, auto-compression, auto-tying, auto-ejection)
This model is widely recognized as one of the most stable heavy-duty horizontal baling press machine solutions for cardboard, OCC, PE film, mixed plastics, and municipal recyclables.
How the ENERPAT Auto-Tie Cardboard Compactor Baler Works
1. Automated Feeding
Waste paper, cardboard, and plastics are delivered directly into the hopper via conveyor.
2. High-pressure hydraulic compression
The three-directional compression system compacts loose material into high-density blocks.
3. Auto-tie & bale ejection
German-engineered auto-tying technology guarantees tight, uniform bundles with heat-treated baling wire and zero manual intervention.
The customer reported an immediate improvement in runtime stability, reduced operator workload, and higher bale density—translating directly into lower transport costs and increased resale value.
Why Argentina Has High Demand for Auto-Tie Cardboard Compactor Balers
Argentina generates large volumes of recyclable packaging waste from cities, manufacturing hubs, and commercial centers.
✔ Waste Volume
National solid waste generation is estimated at 14–16 million tonnes per year, with major cities producing more than half of all recyclable materials.
Cardboard, paper, and plastics are among the highest-volume waste streams, making the cardboard bundler machine an essential asset for recyclers.
✔ Labor-intensive recycling system
Much of Argentina’s recycling sector still relies on manual or cooperative sorting. Automation fills the gap by improving:
✔ Retail, logistics & e-commerce expansion
E-commerce packaging waste has grown steadily, driving higher demand for automatic cardboard balers for warehouse distribution centers, supermarkets, and logistics platforms.
✔ Export market requires higher bale quality
Paper mills and plastic processors—both domestic and export—require standardized bale density to match global material specs. Auto-tie balers make this possible.
Industry Sectors in Argentina That Need Horizontal Auto-Tie Balers
Commercial recycling facilities & sorting centers
Municipal waste transfer stations
E-commerce logistics hubs & distribution warehouses
Retail chains & supermarkets
Printing & packaging factories
Food & beverage manufacturing plants
These sectors generate high-volume OCC, paper scraps, and plastics—all ideal for a horizontal baling press machine.

Relevant Argentine Policies Driving Equipment Investment
Argentina has introduced several initiatives that strengthen the business case for automated balers:
1. Circular economy & recycling system modernization
Regional programs encourage:
2. Updated regulation on recyclable material trading
Recent policy frameworks regulating the movement of non-hazardous recyclable materials encourage more formalized recycling processes and standardized bale handling.
3. EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) discussions
Major cities are advancing EPR frameworks for packaging waste, which will require:
This creates long-term demand for standardized ENERPAT cardboard box press Argentina solutions.
