Kadant expands PAAL business into North America

Kadant Inc. has appointed Bulk Handling Systems (BHS) as the exclusive distributor of its high-performance balers to material recycling facilities in the U.S. and Canada, as the company said in the press release received by Lesprom Network.

Through BHS, Kadant has been awarded its first U.S. order for a channel baler to be installed at the regional waste recovery facility in Monterey, California.

The appointment of BHS represents another important step in Kadant’s strategy to drive revenue synergies following its April 2016 acquisition of PAAL GROUP, the leading European manufacturer of horizontal balers used to process both recyclable materials, including paper and plastics, and non-recyclable materials such as treated household/commercial waste and agricultural products.
Kadant will debut its balers in the U.S. market at the Waste Expo 2017, which takes place in New Orleans May 9-11.

Kadant Inc. is a global supplier of high-value, critical components and engineered systems used in process industries worldwide.
