Bale anything with Orkel
The Orkel compactors are able to bale a wide variety of bulk materials like waste products, animal feed and much more. Take a look at some of the materials below, and do not hesitate to contact us to discuss if your material is baleable!
RDF (Refuse-derived fuel)
RDF (Refuse-derived fuel) refers to a fuel derived from municipal solid waste (MSW), industrial waste or commercial waste. Baling RDF provides the sought-after characteristics of efficient storage and transport.
Maize / corn silage
Maize / corn silage is an energy-rich forage alternative, and because of this, it is ideal for farmers wanting to increase milk yield. By finely chopping the material, you ensure that your cattle consume more and increase the milk yield additionally. Today, maize bales for animal feed are used in more than 40 countries and is therefore a preferred forage by many.

Wood shavings
Wood shavings are thin, small pieces or shreds of wood that are typically created through wood planing or shaving/milling. They are commonly used in various applications such as animal bedding, mulch and as packaging material due to their desirable properties. Simplified handling is one of many advantages of baling this material.
Alfafa
Alfalfa, also known as Lucerne, is high in protein and is therefore a great crop for grazing, hay and silage. It is appreciated for its abilities to handle though conditions, especially droughts, but also other weather impacts. There are many benefits to baling alfalfa: flexibility in terms of storage and when to utilise it, reduced spoilage and conservation of nutrients and ease of feeding are some examples.
Chicken manure
Bailing chicken manure is a common practice to enhance properties and to obtain easy handling, transport and storage. Composting helps break down the organic matter, eliminates pathogens, and reduces the strong odour of fresh manure. Because of this, the results are a stable, nutrient-rich product that can be safely used as a soil amendment.
Other materials
Sugar beet pulp
Sugar beet pulp is a byproduct after the sugar extraction process. It is a valuable animal feed due to its high fibre content, and moderate amounts of protein, energy and minerals.
Bales of sugar beet pulp are easy to transport from where it is produced to where it can be used, and the exclusion of oxygen keeps the feed fresh for up to two years.
TMR (total mixed ration)
TMR is a method of feeding dairy cattle where all the required ingredients, including roughage (fiber) and concentrates (grains, protein sources, and minerals), are mixed together thoroughly before being fed to animals.
If a farmer buys a TMR mix in bales, it can be fed directly to the animals. As a result, the farmer saves time while feeding.

HEMP
​
Hemp, or industrial hemp, is a botanical class of Cannabis sativa cultivars grown for industrial or medicinal use. It can be used to make a wide range of products, like fibres, building materials and biofuel.
SAWDUST
Sawdust (or wood dust) is a by-product or waste product of woodworking operations such as sawing, sanding, milling, planing, and routing. It is composed of small chippings of wood.
BAGASSE
The term bagasse is used for the biomass waste product left after sugarcane (or sorghum) processing. Bagasse is often used as a biofuel, but can be utilized in other ways too.
COTTON SEEDS
Cotton seed is the small, oval-shaped seed that is enclosed within the cotton boll. After cotton is harvested for its fibres, the seeds are separated from the cotton fibre during processing.
