About Balcan Bottle & Vial Crushers

Since the 80’s Balcan has developed a range of vial crushers specifically designed for their purpose.  In designing these machines, Balcan took into account the problems associated by the varieties of the liquid contents and the risks which can so easily occur with excessive aerosols being generated at fast operating speeds.

Vial Crusher disposal solutions worldwide

The problems of disposing vials are not only the volume they fill in waste containers, but often the way in which their liquid contents can require them to be disposed of more expensively than if they were empty, e.g. radioactive cocktails, toxic or volatile liquids.  Needless expense is also incurred because more often than not the amount of liquid in the container is very much less than its actual capacity.

Often the liquid contents are so hazardous they cause headaches, sickness or both and are recognised to have long term health implications.  You have only to read the labels on the bottles!

In a world where health and safety is always at the forefront using a Balcan Vial Crusher overcomes many of the risks associated with manual emptying.

Balcan has always favoured manually or pneumatically operated systems. This, together with fabrication throughout in stainless steel, reduces risks of sparks and other hazards associated with electric operation.

These methods of operation combined with the unique designs of the crushing mechanisms ensure the minimum generation of aerosols and that the machines do not become clogged by the variety of metal, plastic or rubber closures fitted on containers.

However, we listened to what high volume producers need and now incorporate a high capacity unit in our range, supplied with spark proof motors.

Vial Crusher Benefits

The disposal of used vials presents numerous problems.  Emptying vials by hand is unpleasant and disposal of drums of full used vials is expensive!

Some laboratories recognise this fact and spend valuable time having containers emptied manually in the belief that overall they are achieving economies!  If fact retrieving liquids from vials and emptying by hand is tedious, unproductive, labor intensive and presents plenty of health & safety risks, especially when handling volatile, toxic and radioactive materials

Emptying vials with a Balcan vial crusher gives immediate saving in time and the cost of disposal.  Vials are broken and opened more quickly and the liquid contents easily drained from the debris and collected.

Typically vials are reduced to 25% of their original volume to give the 75% space saving.

Balcan Vial Crushers allow vial disposal to be improved and made safer.
