News: Sizer launch in Rotherham

Over 30 delegates from the world of animal feed, recycling and waste management, along with a number of local VIPs, attended a special event held at Sizer in Rotherham recently to mark the official launch of the organisation to potential new markets.

The company, which is part of the Newburgh group, was keen to demonstrate its expertise in providing pelleting solutions for a wide range of different materials, including paper, wood, distilling by-products, pet food, bedding, flour milling, fertiliser and animal feed.

Delegates were welcomed by Newburgh chairman Vincent Middleton and heard from managing director Roger Pearson who provided details of Sizer's exciting plans, which includes the design and manufacture of a new bespoke range of pelleting presses suitable for a wide variety of materials, from domestic to large scale factory usage.

He also outlined how the company is currently carrying out pelleting trials on behalf of customers, as part of improving handling for waste product and providing a more carbon neutral way to heat factories and buildings.

Roger Pearson said: "This was a great opportunity to show potential customers from many different industries just how efficient and versatile our presses are. There are huge opportunities to reduce material transport costs through pelleting, which provides a much more uniform product that is easier to handle and saves on storage space.

"Customers are looking to make better use of by-products and for an easier method of handling their materials and our pelleting presses can provide huge cost savings and environmental benefits to a business.

"Businesses are realizing, too, that their waste can first be turned into a pelleted product which makes handling and storage easy, and then can be used to provide energy efficient fuel for either heating their premises or resale to other parties.

"We have exciting plans over the coming months to release a new range of presses that will be suitable for the animal feed and bedding, biomass, fertilizer and waste transport market."

Within its team, Sizer has over 60 years' experience of meeting customers' requirements for pelleting presses or component parts and with the backing of parent company Newburgh, direct links to the very best in high precision engineering.

Sizer operates on an international scale, with spare parts distribution centres in the UK and Holland, providing customers with the highest levels of service, while also partnering with worldwide distributors in countries such as Canada, Japan and Australia.
