Vertical Balers

Mark-Costello’s exclusive HYPRESS® Hydraulic-Electric Power Unit forces the platen to dwell against the recyclables, trapping material “springback.” This creates high density, maximum weight bales!
Several of Mark-Costello’s Vertical Baler models have front tie-off and automatic bale eject.
