Jaguar Land Rover, Baldonnel, Dublin operate a busy vehicle parts facility and with high parts throughput comes a constant stream of cardboard that needs to be handled efficiently for effective cardboard waste management.
Before installing an LSM baler, the team was dealing with four large bins of cardboard waste every week. Those bins took up valuable outdoor space, required weekly collections at a significant cost, and meant extra time spent managing waste instead of focusing on day to day operations. Improving cardboard waste management became an important priority for the site.
To solve the problem, Jaguar Land Rover installed an LSM V16 baler and the improvement was immediate. Instead of loose cardboard piling up, they can now compact large volumes into neat,easy-to-handle bales, keeping the site tidier and far more efficient. David Lynch, Parts Manager, describes the impact since the install:
“The LSM V16 baler has cut our waste costs, saved time, and freed up space. It’s easy to use and ensures a cleaner, safer workspace.”
WHY THE V16 WORKS WELL FOR JAGUAR LAND ROVER
The V16 is an ideal high capacity baler for compacting a wide range of materials quickly and safely. With a footprint similar to a standard euro pallet, it suits busy warehouse environments and can bale cardboard, plastic, textiles, paper, polystyrene and food waste, producing consistent bales of up to 250kg. For sites looking to improve cardboard waste management, it offers a simple and efficient way to reduce volume and keep operations running smoothly.
- Large filling aperture for easy loading
- “Bale Full” indicator light
- Integrated kicker for easier bale removal
- Low-voltage user controls for added safety
Installed neatly in a corner of the warehouse, the V16 fits seamlessly into daily routines – cardboard is loaded and compacted as the team works. The result: no more overflowing bins outside, a cleaner and safer work area, and much less time spent handling waste.
TRAINING, SUPPORT AND A BETTER OUTCOME
LSM provided full training to ensure all team members were confident using the machine and getting the best performance from it and ongoing support has been a key part of the experience. David also highlighted LSM’s support throughout the process:
“The LSM team have been hugely supportive in helping us with a machine to meet our requirements and letting us trial machines. They’ve also provided our team with training and have always been available for any support or queries.”
SUSTAINABLE COST EFFECTIVE SOLUTION
The operational savings have been just as important as the space and time improvements. Where Jaguar Land Rover previously needed weekly collections for four large bins, they now arrange a collection for one compact bale. Even better, they can now be reimbursed for the cardboard bale, replacing recurring collection costs with a far more cost-effective, circular solution.
Overall, the move to the V16 has delivered a major improvement in day to day efficiency while also supporting Jaguar Land Rover’s wider sustainability goals. It is also a strong example of how better cardboard waste management can reduce costs, save space and improve workplace organisation.
