Macpresse: Breaking the Myths About Horizontal Balers

TO THE RECYCLING INDUSTRY:

Sierra International Machinery is a family owned and operated business dedicated to providing the very best in processing equipment and service support to our customers. We are more than just an equipment distributor, but are in fact recyclers ourselves. My family has a scrap metal business where we have evolved as recyclers of other materials, including scrap paper and plastics. Our equipment divisions have a fundamental understanding of "tons in" and "tons out" and the urgency of uptime productivity.

Our company and family are also totally committed to providing excellent service support and maintains several million dollars in parts inventory for our many customers throughout North America. This is commitment in action.

The Sierra / Macpresse baling systems we provide have made substantial improvements to the bottom lines of our customers. It is a privilege to take a customer operating two or three shifts down to one and radically reduce operating costs for electricity, baling wire and labor. We appreciate opportunities to replace old, slow and unreliable equipment with the best balers in the industry. Our Macpresse balers are highly reliable and easy to operate and maintain. Bale quality is excellent on all types of materials.

Perhaps one of the most important features we offer is improved safety. Sierra International has assisted numerous facilities in improving plant safety using our equipment and designs. The Sierra Safety Lock and Macpresse Conveyor Guardian are the newest and most innovative technologies yet.

My family is committed to improvements in all areas of the recycling industry. We have offices nationwide and in Europe providing local support. Call us and let us review how you can improve your plant safety, efficiency and profits.

Sincerely,

John B. Sacco

President
