- BloApCo industrial shredders are used in distribution centers, corrugated and paperboard plants, converting operations, warehouses, retail distribution centers, and general manufacturing environments.
- BloApCo shredders are designed to process corrugated cardboard, OCC (old corrugated containers), paper cores, pallets, plastics, foam rubber, fiberglass, sheet waste, roll slab, light metals, and other industrial scrap materials.
- BloApCo’s patented Pierce-and-Tear shredding technology uses low-RPM, high-torque shafts to pull apart materials rather than hammering or cutting them. This design helps reduce dust, noise, vibration, maintenance, and energy consumption while improving shredder durability and performance.
- Low-RPM industrial shredders minimize dust, reduce noise levels, lower fire risks, and extend equipment life. Because BloApCo shredders operate at slower speeds with high torque, they require less maintenance and create a safer operating environment for facilities.
- Yes. BloApCo Piggyback Shredders are specifically designed to integrate with existing balers and compactors. These systems can be mounted above balers for direct gravity-fed waste processing, helping facilities maximize floor space and operational efficiency.
