Global innovation, local support: Material Recovery Solutions

A strong partnership between Material Recovery Solutions and Godswill Paper Machinery Company is providing robust and reliable baling solutions for local recycling businesses.

Godswill Paper Machinery Company has been providing paper processing and recycling machinery to businesses across the world since 1987.

It's one of the world's largest manufacturers of balers, of which more than 200 are currently operating across Australia and New Zealand – many in high-volume applications.

Since 2019, south east Queensland-based Material Recovery Solutions (MRS) has served as the exclusive agent for Godswill balers in Australia and New Zealand. This partnership has enabled MRS to provide local sales, service, and support for its customers, while ensuring that the specific needs of the local market are met.

According to Marcus Corrigan, MRS Managing Director, as export bans on multiple waste streams take effect in Australia, the uptick in domestic processing capacity – as well as an increased demand for quality baling machinery – is something his company is well placed to support.

Marcus says the combination of Godswill's quality baling products and MRS’ customer-centric attitude and after sales support has helped build a strong network of repeat customers – one he says accounts for about 90 per cent of MRS’ sales.

"We deem Godswill to be the standard in Australia for medium-to-high throughput applications where reliability and longevity is paramount," he says.

"We’ve built a strong professional relationship with Godswill, and work closely with them to ensure all Godswill baler products are specifically tailored to meet the needs of the Australian and New Zealand markets."

MRS also provides a suite of spare parts to support Godswill products, as well as a full-service machine shop to enable a range of complementary equipment to be manufactured in-house including feed conveyors, screeners, and separators, as well as bespoke custom items when required.

This also allows MRS to offer Godswill products as part of tailored turnkey solutions for material recovery and other recycling facilities.

Marcus says that over the past few years, MRS has prioritised investment in its manufacturing capacity to bring as much of that side of the business in-house as possible.

"With the correct machinery, developed workforce, and efficient design choices we are providing, MRS is committed to growing onshore manufacturing and local employment," he says.

With a team of experienced engineers, technicians and fabricators based at its Queensland headquarters – and contractors in most metropolitan areas nationally – MRS is equipped to support its customers with fast turnaround times, regular service and maintenance.

"MRS is committed to maintaining close relationships with our customers from the point of install, throughout the operational life of the equipment," Marcus says.

This commitment is backed by 24/7 phone support.

Godswill's flagship models include the GB-1111F series auto channel baler and GB-1175TR series twin ram balers.

The auto channel baler supports the processing of materials such as paper, cardboard, and other fibrous waste streams.

The GB-1111F runs on a 135-kilowatt hydraulic system, and offers real world throughput when paired with a suitable feed conveyor. It is capable of baling cardboard at a rate of 18 tonnes per hour, and paper at 22 tonnes per hour.

The twin ram baler series is designed to process high-memory materials such as plastic bottles and LDPE film, and can bale an array of other materials including aluminium and steel cans, and hard plastics.

For especially difficult materials, an Accent 470 wire tying system can be incorporated to apply extra wires to the bale. Custom builds are available for more niche applications. MRS’ range of Godswill balers typically come in three frame sizes and feature modular hydraulic systems, which allow MRS to increase kilowatt packages to tailor the machine to customer requirements.

"Hydraulic systems are designed to be highly efficient, offering regenerative oil management, energy-efficient components and variable frequency drives, with variable speed controllers to optimise low-load stages of the baling cycle," Marcus says.

For ease of use, all Godswill balers are equipped with the Human Machine Interface – an intuitive touchscreen set-up that allows operators to monitor or adjust machine parameters for different materials; as well as access diagnostics, and troubleshoot problems.
