Pallet breaker SB-10
The Ecopolymer company produces powerful and easy-to-use crushers for wooden pallets.
The use of such equipment significantly speeds up and simplifies the disposal and processing of wooden pallets. After grinding, they can be processed, for example, into heating briquettes.
Our auger equipment is best for breaking and pressing wood, but it can also be used for recycling waste paper, plastic and other materials.

Details about the Pallet breaker
What is a pallet breaker?
A pallet breaker is a device that, with the help of a screw mechanism, breaks and reduces relatively large wooden products.
This equipment is best suited for shredding wooden pallets, as well as window frames, branches and wood industry waste.
This is done in order to facilitate the processing of wood, its utilization, storage and transportation.


Processing pallets into heating briquettes
With the help of our pallet crusher, you can not only break and dispose of wood, but also turn it into heating briquettes.
To organize a line for the production of wood briquettes, you will need only three key devices:
- Pallet breaker – for crushing large wooden materials into smaller pieces
- Secondary crusher – for even finer grinding
- A briquette press is a hydraulic device for pressing finely chopped wood into briquettes.
Also, this line can be supplemented with belt conveyors to speed up the supply of materials.

The benefits of using a pallet breaker
A pallet shredder can be used in a variety of businesses and institutions where it is necessary to effectively manage wood waste and reduce its volume for further processing or disposal. Some of these businesses include:
- Saving space in the warehouse: Shredded wood waste is more compactly placed in the warehouse. Thanks to this, the same space can accommodate a much larger amount of wood waste
- Reduction of transportation costs: Reducing the volume of waste also leads to a reduction in the costs of its transportation. More crushed and more compactly compressed waste takes up less space on vehicles, which reduces transportation costs and carbon emissions by motor vehicles.
- Simplifying and speeding up waste management: Shredded waste is easier to move, store, weigh, process
- Save time and labor: Using a pallet crusher allows you to process large volumes of wood waste faster and more efficiently, reducing the time and effort required to process it.
- Optimum use of production space: The pallet crusher has a compact design that allows it to be installed in relatively small spaces. This is especially important for businesses with limited space.
- Possibility of integration into the processing line: If you plan to process pallets or pallets into wood chips and then into heating briquettes, the pallet crusher can be easily integrated into the production line.
- Reliability and service life: Well-thought-out design, simple principle and high-quality materials from which the pallet crusher is made ensure its durability and reliability in operation.
- Cost savings and additional profit: The use of this equipment allows the enterprise to significantly reduce the time and costs of wood waste disposal, as well as to increase the efficiency of production processes and increase overall profitability.
Considering these advantages, our pallet crushers become a useful element in the process of recycling or processing wood. Help ensure the efficiency, economy and environmental benefits of these processes.
The design and principle of operation of a pallet breaker
The equipment is a metal receiving hopper into which materials to be shredded are loaded: old wooden pallets, branches, frames, etc.
A powerful auger rotates, breaks and grinds the material into smaller parts. After that, they fall out and can be subjected to further processing or disposal.


This equipment is equipped with an automatic control cabinet:

Where are pallet breakers used?
Pallet breakers are used in a variety of businesses and institutions where it is necessary to effectively manage wood waste and old, broken pallets and reduce their volume for further processing or disposal. Some of these businesses include:
- Recycling and recycling facilities: Recycling centers, landfills and recycling plants can use pallet crushers to break up and shred wood and other waste before further processing or disposal.
- Lumber companies: Lumber companies can use pallet shredders to speed up the processing of wood waste. For example, for the production of heating briquettes or other goods.
- Commercial establishments: Supermarkets, shops and other retail outlets where there is a constant circulation of wooden pallets can use our equipment to speed up their disposal.
- Warehouses: Large warehouses usually use a large number of pallets. Over time, they wear out and need to be disposed of or recycled.
- Logistics centers: In logistics companies involved in the transportation and distribution of goods, pallet crushers can be used to quickly dispose of used wooden pallets.
These are just a few examples of businesses where pallet shredders can be used to effectively manage wood waste.





What materials do our pallet crushers crush and shred?
Pallet breakers are primarily used for crushing wood waste. However, thanks to the screw principle of operation, they can also be used to press various types of materials in order to reduce their volume. The main materials that can be pressed with them include:
- Waste paper: Screw compactors are used in the pressing of cardboard, paper, corrugated cardboard and other paper products.
- Plastic waste: Polyethylene, polypropylene, PET bottles, computer boards and other types of plastic can be crushed and compressed for further processing or transportation.
- Metal waste: Screw-driven equipment such as pallet crushers are used to compress light metal waste such as aluminum cans, light metal automotive parts, aluminum foil, etc.
These are the main types of materials that can be crushed and pressed using a pallet crusher. But depending on specific needs and production processes at the enterprise, other materials can be used.
After pressing, these materials can be sold to produce new products from wood, paper, cardboard, plastic, metal…
Shredding and compaction saves space in warehouses, waste containers and trucks during transport. Thereby saving your money and protecting the environment.
