BrikStar - A Shining Star

When the chips are down - hydraulic briquetting presses simplify the disposal of metal and cellulose materials, making it economic and safe to dispose of production by-products. Compacting production by-products to a fraction of their original volume reduces storage and disposal costs. Organic material can be reduced down to a tenth of its volume, lightweight metals can be reduced down to a twentieth.

This compacting produces high-value material, for example biomass briquets that are sought after as an alternative energy source; the calorific value of 2 kilograms of briquets is equal to approx. 0.9 litres of heating oil. Prices for scrap metal continue to rise. Briquetting of metal chips increases the cash value of metal scrap by € 50.00 to € 200.00 per metric tonne.

We have updated our BrikStar brochure to include new developments and to illustrate the benefits that customers can gain from using a BrikStar briquetting press.
