Solution: Installation of a commercial and industrial waste sorting line

Waste Initiatives addressed Revert Group’s challenges by installing a customised C&I/C&D sorting line, enabling the segregation of 16 types of waste materials. This tailored solution facilitated Revert Group’s goal of recycling 90% of its waste, significantly reducing its environmental impact and waste disposal costs.

Paul Rosenberg Vella, Director and Co-Founder of Revert Group, praised Waste Initiatives’ hands-on approach, particularly for focusing on safety and dust mitigation. Regular design meetings ensured effective communication and alignment with Revert Group’s recovery objectives. Additionally, Paul appreciated Waste Initiatives’ proactive attitude and commitment to safety during site mobilisation and project execution, which minimised operational risks.

In conclusion, the collaboration between Revert Group and Waste Initiatives exemplifies the successful integration of innovative waste management solutions to address complex challenges in the construction and refurbishment sector, ultimately leading to enhanced efficiency and sustainability in operations.

Solution: Implementing H&G Screw Auger Systems from Waste Initiatives

In search of a reliable and cost-effective waste solution, Sacca’s Fine Foods sought Waste Initiatives’ expertise. The H&G Screw Auger System emerged as a promising choice, offering greater control over waste management and providing a lucrative cardboard rebate due to its diversion from landfills. With its exceptional volume capacity, the screw auger system not only substantially reduced other waste-related expenses but also yielded a commendable return on investment.

Sacca’s Fine Foods experienced a positive transformation with the H&G auger systems. These systems offered reliability, lower maintenance costs than older compactors, and an improved user-friendly experience.

After installing three compactors at three stores, Chris and his team have been highly satisfied with Waste Initiatives. Their contentment stemmed from excellent performance, exemplary service, knowledgeable technicians, and seamless training.

Solution

The ideal solution for Volkswagen was quickly indentified as the mutli-use RPV7700 Roll Packer fitted out with a special-purpose roller to ensure efficient compaction across both timber and cardboard waste streams, without cross- contaminating the bins.

An additional RP7700 Roll Packer was specified for VW’s sister DC in Melbourne.

Upon installation, the site immediately proved the benefit of the original Roll Packer – seeing a significant increase in bin payloads, effective crushing of the most challenging of their waste profiles (including over size crates & boxes), and a safe & reliable operating process delivering substantial savings on their operating costs and freeing up their labour resources.

Solution

Following a site assessment verifying available footprint, access, power and waste volume, Waste Initiatives recommended a high-force integrated compactor with a compact bin size.

Whilst operating on a smaller-than-usual footprint, there was no compromise on bin payloads thanks to the high-force compactor technology used.

The odour management challenge was addressed with a fully-enclosed hopper, activated automatically when the bin lifter is engaged. The installation was expedited on time and on budget – a great outcome for Doyle Bros and their client.

Solution

Waste Initiatives were approached for advice on a suitable replacement baler for the facility.

After a brief consultation with Council staff and a site assessment to verify site conditions and placement, a HX400-38T semi-automatic closed-door baler was recommended as the ideal upgrade for the facility.

The high-force HX400 Baler ensures Walcha Council are able to not only process their cardboard volumes, but also a range of other recyclables including shredded paper, cans and bottles.

Solution

Saputo could not risk considerable downtime. Waste Initiatives were committed to keeping plant shutdown to an absolute minimum and chose to install during their usual Christmas closure period. It was therefore critical the replacement baler could be modified and set up quickly and that the automatic feeders aligned with precision.

Waste Initiatives were able to manufacture a custom designed unit to replace the existing baler in the same location. Whilst the new CB40HZ baler can withstand all weather conditions, it was raised by 150mm to allow for easy cleaning and water run-off around the base to avoid corrosion. As the new baler produces a higher density bale, it is more operationally efficient, and reduces labour times and forklift movements across the site.

COVID lockdowns and restrictions resulted in the onsite installation being delayed multiple times. Through professional client relationship management, project expectations, site shutdown schedules and training opportunities were delivered to the clients’ full satisfaction.

Solution

In accordance with Council procurement policy, a public tender was released to market, inviting bids from all reputable baler suppliers.

Superseding all other tenderers across a thorough assessment criteria, Waste Initiatives was awarded the contract for supply & installation of the baler (including infeed conveyor with push ramp).

In spite of site delays with erecting Council’s shed to house the baler, Waste Initiatives were able to arrange a staged delivery and installation which involved preparing and sealing the baler for outdoors storage while it awaited the shed construction.

Installation & commissioning was later completed to Shoalhaven’s full satisfaction.

Solution

When approaching the market for proposals to replace the failing container baler, their site manager received a recommendation to engage Waste Initiatives as the market leader in this field.

After a comprehensive assessment of the site layout, feed method and performance requirements, the WastePac HX400-38T Horizontal Baler was selected as the best suited machine.

Waste Initiatives had to consider the existing triple hopper infeed system – a challenge to fit in with the vertical closed-door mechanism. Our installation technicians safely ensured this was managed without incident, resulting in a successful installation – on time and on budget.

Solution

Waste initiatives supplied just short of 200 WastePac 300LH and 60 balers to stores across Australia. The 300LH for the cardboard waste and the 60 for the plastic film.

The WastePac 60 Baler is a small scale baler commonly used for small to medium volumes of plastics and cardboard waste and the perfect choice for limited space.

The WastePac 300 Low Height Baler suits high volume cardboard waste accepting large boxes whole, eliminating any need to cut down prior to compaction, saving operator time.

Waste Initiatives has supplied USB and online training videos for 24/7 assistance.

Solution

Remondis turned to Waste Initiatives as their equipment specialist for recommendation of a compact solution to manage the increasing general waste and cardboard volumes the site was generating.

After a site assessment and detailed measure- up was completed, Waste Initiatives equipment specialists recommended a high-force 15m3 RP30 waste compactor & bin lifter combination for the general waste, and a special purpose APS1100 Roto-Compactor for the cardboard waste stream.

The installation was an overwhelming success, freeing up additional space and reducing the centre’s cost of waste managment thanks to the high bin payloads of up to 10T!

Solution

Waste Initiatives supplied a WastePac 100 Vertical Baler which is the ideal cardboard compactor for this size supermarket and the waste encountered.

It has a fully automatic bale ejector and produces a pallet sized bale which is easily handled.

The ease of feeding the cardboard boxes into the large feed opening is saving time for the staff members which is a key advantage to this robust machine.
