Horizontal Balers

Automatic high-volume baling for DCs, recyclers, and manufacturers, built to the job.

Horizontal baler install with a Norton-fabricated infeed hopper

When cardboard volume outgrows a vertical baler (when someone is baling all shift instead of a few minutes a day) a horizontal baler changes the operation. Material feeds continuously into an open hopper, the ram runs automatically, and finished mill-size bales eject tied and ready to stack.

We design, sell, install, and service horizontal systems across the Mid-South: closed-door manual-tie machines for growing operations and full auto-tie balers for serious volume. These are ordered and built to the job, and our crew handles the feed works, tippers, and setup that make the whole line run as one machine.

Why It Works

What you get with Norton.

Continuous automatic operation

Photo-eye start, automatic cycling, and auto-tie options mean the baler works while your people do something else.

Mill-spec bales

Dense, uniform export/mill bales maximize the price per ton your material brings and the payload per truck.

Built and installed to your building

Feed works, tippers, and setup fabricated and configured to your site so the line runs as one machine.

Multi-material capability

OCC, shrink film, PET, aluminum, non-ferrous: one machine, multiple commodity streams with the right options.

Straight Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

At what volume does a horizontal baler make sense?
A common threshold is roughly 15-20 tons of cardboard per month: below that, a high-density vertical usually wins on cost. Labor matters too: if baling is a full-time job, automation pays. We will model both options for you.
Are horizontal balers in stock or built to order?
Horizontal systems are ordered and built to the job so the machine and feed setup fit your building and volume. We scope it with you and handle delivery, install, and commissioning.
Can you move or reinstall an existing horizontal system?
Yes, equipment logistics is one of our core services. We relocate, level, re-power, and recommission baling systems, including ones we did not originally install.
