Briquetting and
processing

A large proportion of our business is related to swarf management and in close collaboration with many of our customers, we have overseen the investment and installation of briquetting systems on our customers' sites.

Briquetting

The benefits of installing a briquetting system:

  • Increased scrap revenueIn briquette form, the value of your scrap is increased, often by 20%.
  • Increased transparencyNo more deductions for moisture or oil content - you are paid for the weight of briquettes recorded at your premises.
  • Improved handlingBriquettes are easily stored and transported in plastic bins, forklift containers or skips.
  • Significant savingsThe coolant which is pressed out of the swarf can be recycled and pumped back into a filtration system, thus reducing your spend on new coolant.
  • Improved Health, Safety and Environmental conditionsA briquetting system removes problems associated with handling of loose wet swarf, such as spillages and disposal of waste coolant.
  • Reduced Carbon FootprintBy pressing the swarf, you can reduce the volume of the material by as much as 20:1 - this means fewer road transport collections are required, not to mention the benefits of re-using the coolant.

All of the above benefits can be achieved without the need for any capital expenditure on your part. Tom Martin & Company can offer a briquetting press as well as a coolant filtration / recycling unit as part of a waste management package. For a no obligation site survey, please contact us.
