Machine Overview
The Orwak 2500 DC Drum Crusher is a heavy-duty machine designed specifically for crushing steel drums and reducing their volume prior to disposal or recycling.
By compressing drums into a fraction of their original size, the machine helps organisations reduce storage requirements, improve handling efficiency and lower transportation and disposal costs. It is particularly suitable for hazardous waste applications where empty or nominally empty steel drums require safe and efficient volume reduction.
Robust, reliable and easy to operate, the Orwak 2500 DC provides an effective solution for organisations handling large quantities of steel drums.
Designed for Hazardous Waste Applications
Many industries generate significant volumes of steel drums used for storing oils, chemicals, lubricants, paints and other potentially hazardous materials.
The Orwak 2500 DC Drum Crusher provides a practical method of reducing the volume of these containers before disposal or recycling. By crushing drums after use, organisations can maximise storage space, improve site housekeeping and reduce the number of collections required.
The machine is particularly suitable for environments where hazardous waste containers must be managed efficiently whilst helping to minimise handling and storage requirements.

Why Crush Steel Drums?
Steel drums can occupy a significant amount of storage space, even when empty. Crushing drums before disposal or recycling can dramatically reduce the volume of waste requiring storage, transport and handling.
For organisations generating large quantities of drums, volume reduction can help lower waste management costs, improve site efficiency and simplify waste handling procedures.
Crushing drums can also improve storage capacity and reduce the frequency of waste collections, delivering both operational and financial benefits.
