Safety. Sustainability. Savings.
EcoWire is a high-performance PET baling wire made from 100% recycled PET, engineered with Accent's patented technology to match or exceed the performance of traditional steel baling wire.
Developed for recycling and waste processing operations, EcoWire offers a safer, cleaner and more cost-effective alternative to steel. It combines reliable baling performance with reduced equipment wear, lower maintenance demands and a significantly lower CO₂ footprint.
And with Accent handling the conversion, including the upfront costs, making the switch is easier than ever.
Discover EcoWireWhy choose EcoWire?
Traditional steel baling wire comes with hidden costs. Machine wear, maintenance, handling risks and downstream processing all affect operational efficiency.
EcoWire addresses these challenges with five key advantages.
10%+ potential wire savings
Save 10% or more on wire costs while benefiting from reduced maintenance, fewer wear-part replacements and less equipment downtime.
Cleaner and safer handling
Eliminate sharp steel ends and oily floors, reducing common handling hazards and helping create a safer, cleaner workplace.
Up to 90% lower CO₂ footprint
Made from 100% recycled PET, EcoWire delivers up to 90% lower CO₂ footprint compared with traditional steel wire on a material basis.
More efficient storage and logistics
Store more wire in less space, transport more per truck and benefit from the ability to store EcoWire outdoors.
Downstream savings
For suitable paper recycling applications, EcoWire can reduce ragger or steel wire disposal costs, creating additional value beyond the baling operation.
Applications for EcoWire plastic baling wire
EcoWire is developed for selected recycling and waste processing applications where steel wire creates operational, safety or downstream processing challenges.
Typical applications include:
RDF and SRF: Secure baling for waste-derived fuels.
Waste-to-energy: Reduced steel-related handling and downstream processing requirements.
Paper and cardboard: Reliable baling with potential savings in maintenance and downstream wire disposal.
Plastic recycling: Reduced risk of steel contamination during further processing.
Material recovery facilities: An alternative for suitable recycling and waste streams.
Compatibility depends on the baler, tying system, material stream and operating requirements. Accent assesses the application and handles the conversion process.
Discover EcoWire applicationsReliable performance in horizontal balers
EcoWire combines high tensile strength with controlled elongation to secure bales during handling, storage and transport.
The wire is designed for selected automatic horizontal balers and is available in various reel sizes, with up to 13,000 metres per reel.
Switching from steel to PET baling wire starts with a technical assessment. Depending on the machine and application, adjustments or additional validation may be required.
