Morocco: ENERPAT HBA-80-11075 Cardboard Recycling Baler Installed

As Morocco accelerates its transition toward a circular economy, the demand for high-efficiency cardboard recycling equipment is growing rapidly. Recently, ENERPAT successfully installed an HBA-80-11075 Cardboard Recycling Baler for a professional recycling company located in the Tangier Free Zone, marking another milestone for automated waste paper baling solutions in North Africa.

This project not only solved the customer’s urgent production bottleneck but also set a benchmark for horizontal baler machine applications in Morocco’s recycling industry.

Customer Background: A Recycling Company Under Capacity Pressure

The customer operates a local recycling company in northern Morocco, serving industrial and commercial clients that generate large volumes of OCC (Old Corrugated Containers).

Before contacting ENERPAT, the customer faced three critical challenges:

Insufficient output capacity: Their existing baler could no longer meet the required 4 tons per hour throughput.

• Logistics inefficiency: Loose or irregular bales made it impossible to consistently load 25 tons of baled OCCs into a 40-foot container, increasing transport costs.

• Urgent replacement need: Equipment downtime directly impacted daily operations and export schedules.

The customer reached ENERPAT via Google after searching for “cardboard recycling baler”, clearly stating their technical and commercial requirements:

“We need a baler that can bale OCCs into specific dimensions and weights to ensure we can fit 25 tons of baled OCCs into a 40-foot container, with a minimum capacity of 4 tonnes per hour.”

Why a Fully Automatic Horizontal Baler Was the Only Viable Solution

From the customer’s perspective, a manual or semi-automatic system was no longer an option. Labor costs, consistency issues, and throughput limitations made automation essential.

A fully automatic cardboard recycling baler offered decisive advantages:

• Continuous feeding via conveyor

• Stable bale size and weight for container optimization

• Reduced labor dependency

• Higher operational safety and uptime

Based on these requirements, ENERPAT recommended the HBA-80-11075 waste paper baler, a robust Auto-Tie Horizontal Baler designed for high-volume OCC recycling.

Selected Model: ENERPAT HBA-80-11075 Cardboard Recycling Baler

How the ENERPAT Auto Cardboard Baler Works

The ENERPAT horizontal baler machine follows a fully automated and reliable workflow:

1. Conveyor Feeding

Loose cardboard and waste paper are continuously fed into the hopper.

2. Hydraulic Compression

A powerful hydraulic system compresses the material using a three-directional pressing structure.

3. Automatic Tying and Ejection

German auto-tie technology binds each bale with high-tensile quenched steel wire, then ejects the finished bale automatically.

The result is uniform, tightly packed bales that remain stable during transport and storage.

Why Morocco Is a Growing Market for Cardboard Recycling Balers

Expanding Waste Generation and Recycling Demand

• Morocco generates 7–9 million tons of municipal solid waste per year

• Paper and cardboard waste is estimated at around 500,000 tons annually

• Current paper recycling rates remain relatively low (around 20%), leaving significant room for growth

This gap between waste generation and recycling capacity is directly driving demand for waste paper baling press solutions.

Policy-Driven Growth

The Moroccan government is actively promoting recycling through:

• National waste management and circular economy programs (2024–2025)

• Investment in regional sorting and recycling centers

• Planned implementation of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regulations for packaging waste

• Formalization of the recycling sector to replace inefficient informal systems

These policies strongly favor automated, industrial-grade solutions such as the ENERPAT auto cardboard baler.

Future Outlook: Why Now Is the Right Time to Invest

Market studies indicate that Morocco’s cardboard recycling sector is expected to grow at a 4–7% CAGR between 2025 and 2029. As recycling companies scale up, demand for reliable cardboard recycling baler systems will continue to rise.

For companies still relying on outdated equipment, delayed investment often leads to:

• Higher labor and logistics costs

• Missed export opportunities

• Inability to comply with upcoming regulatory standards
