FROMM Packaging Australia stocks and sells a range of strap choppers which turns waste into a recyclable asset
Within the range of Sweed strap choppers, there are machines for low volumes of strapping waste or high volumes found in traditional heavy industry.
In the Food and Beverage and paper industries the Sweed Choppers are usually located at the receiving area so the strapping can be removed from the product and chopped into 75mm pieces straight into a bulk bag or drum for recycling. In timber, brick and tile Industries where the strap is wider and the waste higher, the larger DX models by Sweed are better suited so multiple pieces of steel or plastic strap can be chopped and processed at the same time.

RECYCLE YOUR USED PET STRAP
By leasing or purchasing a FROMM Strap Chopper, our customers can process used strapping into recyclable pieces. These devices reduce the material from bulky hard to handle lengths into small pieces that fit into 500KG bulk bags.
In our programme, the bulk bags when full of clean, colour sorted, and uncontaminated chopped strap are sent to our facility for reprocessing where the material is granulated and processed into reusable resin. The recycled resin is used to manufacture all sorts of items, including "hand grade" PET strapping for other markets. Click here to view our strap recycling program.

Strap Choppers
- Waste reduction: Turns bulky and long strapping waste into smaller, manageable pieces for recycling.
- Operational efficiency: Reduces the manual handling of long straps, improving worker safety and reducing disposal costs.
- Sustainability: Supports recycling initiatives by converting strapping into a form that's easier to process for reuse.
The appropriate model depends on the volume and type of strapping waste you generate. Low-volume models work well for operations with minimal strapping, while high-volume industries like timber, brick, and tile may require a larger model, which can process wider straps more efficiently.
Once the straps are chopped, they are collected in bulk bags or drums and can be sent to recycling centres.
The chopped material is more compact and easier to manage, reducing storage and transportation costs.
