Label presses for draining and compressing
The bottling and recycling industry produces large quantities of labels, capsules and bottle labels every day. This waste takes up valuable storage space and increases disposal costs. With WEIMA label presses, these materials can be efficiently dewatered and compacted. This reduces the volume of waste by up to 70%. At the same time, valuable liquids such as lye can be recovered cleanly.

Economical disposal of old labels
Dewatering and compacting used labels reduces both the weight and volume of the waste. This significantly reduces disposal costs. At the same time, valuable lye can be recovered and reused. This leads to economical and sustainable disposal. WEIMA presses are not only efficient in waste recycling, but also optimize the entire process of production waste management.
