PTR: The Choice of Top Retail Markets

PTR Baler and Compactor Company is the industry leader in meeting the waste equipment needs of the retail market. Our retail waste solutions experts work with 16 out of the 20 top retail chains in the country.

PTR has decades of experience working with various retail markets. Retail chains know how critical it is to keep floor space clear, for both safety reasons and efficiency. If sustainability is one of your main goals, PTR’s waste management equipment can help you achieve it. We will analyze the waste stream and provide a custom solution for your company. Our professional staff can assist you whether you are opening a new retail establishment, replacing your old waste baler or compactor, or looking for repair for your current recycling equipment.

Ethically and economically, sustainability policies are critical for all retail businesses today. PTR products are the key to reaching your company’s recycling goals. What was once considered waste, is now a valuable commodity. Instead of further contributing to our country’s growing landfills, you’re diverting that ‘waste’ to a recycling facility. Everything from cardboard, plastic bags, shrink wrap, plastic bottles, aluminum cans and co-mingled recyclables (sandwich bales), are all perfect candidates for waste diversion. Our full line of vertical hydraulic balers come in a variety of sizes to suit your retail business’s individual needs. The benefits are three fold; you’ll meet your waste stream requirements, convert waste removal expense into a revenue stream, and benefit the environment.

Retail establishments including home supply chains, clothing chains and large department stores typically deal with mostly dry waste. Stationary compactors are usually the best equipment to deal with dry waste streams. Check out of full collection of sizes and styles to find the stationary compactor that will work best for you.

Why choose PTR balers & compactors? Your employee’s safety is one of our top priorities when developing our equipment. All of products meet OSHA and NOISH recommendations and are fully UL approved. We put every product through extensive testing, meticulously engineered and inspected, and they are build to last.

Our Bioloc secure access option is the ideal solution for retail chains who must meet OSHA and NOISH standards, as well as helping to reduce shrinkage and preventing employees under 18 from accessing the baler or compactor.

PTR delivers, installs and services your waste equipment to locations across the country, from coast to coast. Our technicians are highly skilled and thoroughly trained professionals. Our product is the highest quality available in the market and backed with a comprehensive warranty. The difference between a PTR baler or compactor and a cheap imitation is a safer, longer lasting, more efficient waste management system for your business. Choose PTR and you’ll be reaping the benefits of that choice for years to come. Click here to contact us today.

PTR: 50 years of Safety, Innovation & Excellence

In 1970, PTR Baler & Compactor Company built our first baler. From that day, we’ve become the supplier of choice for 16 of the 20 top retailers in the country. In just the last 30 years, PTR has produced and sold upwards of 60,000 balers & compactors across the United States. Our Vertical Hydraulic Balers are the answer to keeping critical floorspace clear of dry waste such as cardboard, as well as the ability to implement recycling and sustainability policies. The benefits of our products aren’t limited to any one kind of organization. Markets including Retail non-food, Retail food, Warehouse, Distribution, Industrial, Medical, Universities, Public Institutions and Facility management will all benefit from the increased efficiency, safety and productivity of PTR Vertical Balers and compactors.

Now, in 2018, we celebrate 50 years of leading the industry in safety, innovation and excellence. We offer a line of over 25 baler models and nearly 20 different stationary compactors. All of our equipment is manufactured with quality, safety, longevity and low total cost of ownership in mind. It won’t take long before you notice the cost savings on tipping and compliance fees, fuel and more.

We’ve always strived to lead the way through technology and innovation. The difference between the quality of our product over the competition can be greatly attributed to the expertise of the welders responsible for creating them. PTR welders are all highly trained professionals and fully AWS certified. This is not the norm across the industry, but it always will be at PTR.

Since the first baler was built, PTR has been responsible for many innovations that have shaped the entire industry.

• In the 1980’s, PTR manufactured the first high density baler in the industry, capable of producing 1,000 lbs. bales. It was a huge milestone for the company and the industry, as well.

• In 2003, we implemented a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). By 2012, PTR’s PLC’s were a standard feature in all 10HP balers.

• In 2013, PTR beame the first manufacturer ever to have 3 Third Party Certifications- C-ETL, C-UL and PSR.

• 2016 was the year PTR was the first to produce the 1 ton bale. It was also the year PTR created the first baler installed with load cells that could communicate remotely.

We often ask our customers what they want, and what they think will improve their operations. Then we work to deliver the perfect solution. At PTR we know if one organization has a need, many others have that need, too. We’re not showing signs of slowing down, either. PTR will continue to innovate, like with the creation of the new Quiet Power Unit. It’s our ’50th Anniversary Option’ to our Vertical Balers, and it’s the difference between being the noisiest equipment in the shop, to just about the same as a quiet conversation.

Another major innovation is the Compactor Weight Scale. This weight monitoring system allows you to optimize pickups for required weights. Why does this matter to you? Because you will be able to truly zero in on accuracy, save considerably on tipping fees, eliminate overweight containers and increase safety.

The system is available for both balers and compactors. Contact PTR to find out the cost-savings this equipment can mean for you.
