Unlimited Recycling Resources brings the G-Baler line to the US

More than 3,000 single- and two-ram G-Balers have been installed globally.

In 2012, Unlimited Recycling Resources (URR), Chino Hills, California, introduced the G-Baler line of single- and two-ram balers to the U.S. market. More than 3,000 installations in 72 nations feature G-Balers, according URR.  
 
The first G baler installed in the United States, a GB-1111F single ram, was installed in 2012 in Northern California and has proven to be a success, the company says. Recently completing its third year in service, the machine has been processing more than 2,000 tons per month of recovered fiber. 
 
URR adds that during a recent preventive maintenance visit, the machine required little service, not even a shear blade adjustment. The company points out that the baler’s quality and craftsmanship are highlighted in its platen design: The platen rides on ram rollers along replaceable, bolt-in and hardened rails.   
 
The success of the initial G-baler installation has led to additional installations, including a major Midwestern paper recycler, URR says. Prior to the company’s G-Baler installation, it worked two shifts to meet its monthly production requirement of 4,000 tons. The company now accomplishes this in a single shift while realizing $20,000 per month operational savings, according to URR.   
 
URR offers decades of experience in the recycling and paper converting industries to the market. The company adds that its sales and technical team have extensive backgrounds in machinery application and service. 
 
The company also has a nationwide distribution network, which allows URR to offer customers local support.
