Harmony’s balers help recycle stadium by-product waste like shrink wrap, reducing waste & increasing sustainability!
Concession areas utilize our 450SS Stainless Steel compactors to help reduce waste in back of house areas, helping to keep work areas clean and free from hazards. Most importantly, they allow kitchen staff to tend to customer needs, while reducing the kitchen waste footprint by 25X its original size! This reduces waste hauling emissions and burden in the landfill.
Harmony’s vertical and horizontal balers help stadiums recycle large quantities of operational byproducts like cardboard, PET, shrink wrap, and aluminum at each stadium level and in collection areas beneath the stadium, close to where trucks can come in and easily stack and transport the valuable commodities to recyclers for cash, while keeping them out of the overall waste stream.
