Decrease the size and volume of waste material with industrial trash compactors
The RUNI Screw press compactors are used for compacting many types of waste materials to reduce the volume quickly and efficiently. We manufacture industrial waste compactors for compacting many kinds of industrial waste: plastic foams (like EPS, EPP, EPE, XPS, and PUR), dust, various plastic containers, aluminum cans, and mineral wool. For some materials, the RUNI compactors can reach a compaction ratio of 50:1 in one very simple and continuous workflow.

Turn waste into value with RUNI’s industrial waste compactors
Once compacted, the waste is easier to handle and transport, and as a bonus, it can often be sold to recycling companies. This is very obvious with EPS. Uncompacted, the waste takes up a lot of space and has no value, and companies may have to pay to get rid of it. When compacted at a ratio of 50:1, more can be transported in a truckload and sold to recyclers for several hundred euros per ton.
Expired aluminum cans full of sweet drinks have no value as a resource, but if the liquid is drained from the cans, both waste streams can be valuable. The liquid can be sold for biogas, and the cans for recycling. The RUNI SK240 and SK370 for dewatering PET, alu-cans, and Tetra-Pak handle this separation process in one workflow. The full product is fed into the machine at the top, the liquid is drained out at the bottom, and the solid waste comes out at the end.

All our industrial waste compactors are very energy efficient with low kW usage. They are user-friendly and reliable compactors designed to work in difficult conditions and demanding environments.
How to choose the ideal industrial waste compactor
The RUNI screw compactors come in different configurations and different sizes depending on the need of the customer in terms of required capacity and how the customer wishes to incorporate the RUNI into their manufacturing process. We can customize the machines to fit the specific needs of each customer so that each installation will be the best possible fit.
How we help our clients Turn waste into value
Over the years, we have supplied many machines worldwide to different industries, constantly discovering new areas where our machines can make a difference.

At Norlax in Denmark, they have experienced an ROI on the RUNI machine, including a new building to house the machine, in less than 2 years. They process fish, and on a good day, they will handle approximately 1000 EPS boxes of fresh salmon. Before investing in the RUNI, they filled 4 trucks with empty boxes daily! Now, they only have a collection once every 2 weeks. Read more here.
Like all other beverage manufacturers, Carlsberg also faced the issue of faulty or expired production they needed to deal with. They got a RUNI SK370 for their PET-bottles and an SK240 for their alu-cans. Now, they can efficiently separate liquid from solid waste at their facilities, and the PET and alu-cans can be recycled.
