CUSTOM MADE BRIQUETTES THAT HELP MANUFACTURERS SQUEEZE VALUE OUT OF THEIR RECLAIMED MATERIALS

Briquetting allows companies to put their metal or mineral scraps to good use by compressing them into dense, reusable shapes. The sustainable practice reduces harmful waste, keeps labor costs to a minimum, and creates new revenue streams for waste-intensive manufacturers in the automotive, railroad, pipe and foundry, and brake casting industries.
