Crowning Achievements in Baling |

J.C. Fibers is well acquainted with Macpresse balers from Sierra International Machinery LLC. The company, which is headquartered in Chambly, Quebec, has owned four Macpresse balers in the last 15 years and currently operates a MAC 111 AS baler at its Montreal and Rochester, N.Y., plants.
The company receives nearly
300,000 tons of paper, plastic and metal per year at its three plants and
uses its Macpresse units to bale high- and low-grade fiber, which comes in
loose, on pallets or in bins. The Rochester and Montreal plants also offer
in-plant secure document destruction services. |

J.C. Fibers installed its first MAC baler in its Chambly plant in 1989 when rebuilding after a devastating fire. When it came time to upgrade to a larger baler in 1997, J.C. Fibers turned to Macpresse and Sierra again. This was after having purchased Macpresse balers for its Montreal plant in 1995 and its Rochester facility in 1996. Joseph Colubriale, CEO of J.C. Fibers, says he is most impressed by the quality of the bales produced by the MACs. “For the export market, you need to get a condensed, heavy bale.” Colubriale says that’s exactly what Macpresse balers deliver. “They form sturdy bales that you can stack high,” he says, adding that the bales are easily handled by forklift operators. Sturdy stacks of bales are also safer stacks, which appeals to a company like J.C. Fibers, which highly prizes employee safety. Colubriale also values his relationship with Sierra and Macpresse and their commitment to timely service and honest dealings. “As far as my experience, nothing beats Macpresse for us at J.C. Fibers,” Colubriale says. “It’s the king of balers.” |
