Conveyors
FAQ
What are recycling conveyors used for?
Conveyors help move waste materials — such as cardboard, packaging or shredded waste — efficiently from one point to another, reducing manual handling and improving workplace safety and productivity.
Which types of waste can go on a conveyor?
Conveyors can handle cardboard, packaging waste, paperboard, plastic film and other light to medium-weight recyclable materials. For heavier or bulk materials, we recommend pairing conveyors with balers, compactors or shredders.
How does a conveyor improve waste handling workflows?
By automating material movement, conveyors speed up processing, reduce labour, minimise downtime and make recycling more efficient — ideal for warehouses, distribution centres, manufacturing and retail settings.
Do you supply conveyors with installation and delivery?
Yes — we offer full delivery, installation and commissioning for all conveyor orders, making sure they’re ready for immediate use.
Can conveyors integrate with balers, shredders or compactors?
Absolutely. Conveyors are often used in combination with balers, shredders or compactors to create a streamlined waste processing line, improving overall efficiency.
Do conveyors require regular maintenance or spare parts?
Yes — regular inspection and maintenance ensures safe operation. We offer full servicing and part replacement through our Service & Repairs page.
Is operator training available for conveyors?
Yes — we provide professional operator training to ensure safe and correct use of conveyors. More details are available on our Machine Training page.
