How a Wool Press Can Help Your Clothing Business

A manufacturing business that requires the prompt and efficient compaction and exportation of clothing can really benefit from a wool press (also known as a TPW wool press). Fortunately, you're in luck as Elephant's Foot have a range of industrial balers for clothes that suit a vast variety of industrial purposes. Here are five things to consider before buying a cloth baler or wool press.

What Are Your Goals and Needs?

An organisation should have a clear and forward-thinking perspective on waste management. The goals of greater operational efficiency, lowering cost and bringing in additional revenue are always the ultimate goals in any process changes in a company.

Analyse Your Waste Materials

Analyse what proportion of waste can be recycled, and what can be reused elsewhere in the business. Try and salvage as much waste material as possible for further usage – this is a wise and pragmatic idea. It means that you are doing the right thing by the environment while also being cost-conscious as well.

A wool press or cloth baler can be versatile enough to handle many other different types of waste material. Analyse your business' needs prior to a purchase of a TPW wool press. Can you afford to let cardboard, metal and plastic waste go to landfill without compacting and processing it properly? Then perhaps it's best to get a more general use baler that can handle several different types of waste materials.

Analyse your waste volume

Consider a wool press or TPW wool press as a remedial action that can assist with saving precious space in the workplace. The volume of materials that a baler or wool press can handle are also a vital element to consider. In a compact processing space, it's best to consider a vertical baler. Our vertical balers are terrific for tight squeezes and spaces that require economical spatial measures. 

Consider the reliability factor

Not all balers and wool presses are built from the same high-quality parts. In order to ensure that your business is getting real value for money with products, speak with other businesses who have trialled the products in question. They will be able to provide an unbiased view of the efficiency of these products.

Elephant's Foot consistently provide Australian businesses with a terrific return on investment for their waste management needs. A TPW wool press from Elephant's Foot is designed using cutting edge technology and materials.
