Corrugated Paper Briquette Press
The UT-100 Industrial Corrugated Paper Briquette Press is a high-efficiency solution designed to transform bulky cardboard waste (OCC) into dense, stackable energy logs. Utilizing advanced binderless technology, the machine leverages high hydraulic pressure to activate natural lignin in cellulose fibers, creating solid briquettes without expensive additives. This system allows facilities to reduce transportation costs by up to 80% and produce a valuable biomass fuel with a calorific value of up to 4,500 kcal/kg.
Transform Cardboard & Paper Waste with Industrial Briquetting Technology
Transform corrugated paper and cardboard waste into dense, stackable biofuel briquettes with the UT-100 Corrugated Paper Briquette Press. This industrial briquetting machine reduces disposal costs, reclaims up to 80% of warehouse space, and creates a new revenue stream from recycled paper.
The Problem – Hidden Costs of Corrugated Paper Waste
Loose corrugated paper and cardboard waste causes:
- High disposal fees from frequent dumpster pickups
- Valuable warehouse space consumed by bulky, low-density waste
- Labor costs for constant waste handling and cleanup
- Rising environmental compliance fees and landfill restrictions
You’re not just disposing of waste—you’re losing potential profit.
The Solution – Corrugated Paper Briquette Press
Binderless Briquetting Technology – Nature Does the Work
Unlike conventional balers that simply squeeze material, the UT-100 uses controlled hydraulic pressure to generate heat—activating the natural lignin within paper fibers. This biological polymer acts as a natural glue, fusing shredded corrugated paper into solid, durable briquettes.
Why UT Machinery’s binderless briquetting is different:
- No chemical binders = lower operating costs and pure briquettes
- Pressure curve optimized specifically for cellulose fibers
- Consistent results across varying material densities
The result: rock-solid briquettes that hold together during transport and storage, ready for sale or recycling.
90% Volume Reduction – Reclaim Your Space
Loose corrugated paper is mostly air. The UT-100 briquetting press compresses it into compact cylindrical briquettes:
- Recover up to 70-80% of previously wasted floor space
- Reduce transportation and disposal costs by up to 80%
- Stackable briquette logs for efficient storage and handling
- What used to require 10 truckloads now fits in just one.
Industrial-Grade Briquetting Machine Construction
- Heavy-duty steel frame engineered for high-pressure briquetting
- Premium hydraulic components from trusted global suppliers
- Simplified design with fewer moving parts = less maintenance
- 24/7 operation capability for high-volume facilities

The End Product – From Waste Paper to Valuable Resource
- Dimensions: 70mm diameter × variable length
- Density: 5-10x higher than loose material
- Calorific Value: ~4,000–4,500 kcal/kg (comparable to low-grade coal)
- Three ways to profit from your paper briquettes:
- Reduce disposal costs — fewer pickups, less labor, smaller dumpsters
- Sell as biofuel to industrial boilers or biomass plants
- Use for on-site heating — offset energy costs in winter months
