Annealed wire for
recycling and distribution

Annealed wire is steel wire that is reheated after drawing. This annealing process makes the wire exceptionally pliable and therefore ideal for automatic processing in continuously operating balers. It is the standard choice for applications where bundling, tying or packaging must run reliably and without interruption, even at high volumes.

Because annealed wire is oiled, it runs smoothly through automatic installations and prevents friction or blockages. This keeps the process stable, predictable and efficient – even during long cycles and heavy loads.

We supply annealed wire in a wide range of diameters and coil forms, tailored to your baling installation and material flows.

Key options at a glance:
  • Black annealed — pliable and strong for general use

  • Oiled — smooth processing in automatic systems

  • Forms — incl. coils and Brehmer rings, ready to use and packed to your requirements

Applications and advice: smooth processing without downtime

The right type of annealed wire depends on the material and bale size. In automatic balers, the oiled version ensures continuous throughput and prevents stoppages due to friction or blockages. The right winding and coil form keep bales firmly secured and the process running smoothly – even with heavy or bulky materials.

Typical applications
  • Bundling recyclable materials such as cardboard, film or textiles in recycling environments

  • Packaging products for shipping or storage in warehouses and fulfilment centres

  • Structuring loose elements at construction sites or temporary structures

  • Manual tying of packages or bundles in retail and assembly processes

An unsuitable type of wire can quickly lead to breakage or delays. The right wire keeps the process predictable and prevents downtime or unnecessary handling.

Tailored advice for annealed wire

Not sure about the right diameter or coil form? Our specialists provide targeted advice based on your baler, material and production environment. This ensures the wire runs smoothly through your installation and every bale is securely closed.

Contact us for advice

The right wire, at the right time, in the right form

Our annealed wire is fully compatible with both vertical and horizontal balers and designed for high-volume recycling processes. We work with specialised producers in Europe and Asia, selected for quality and delivery reliability. Each batch is checked for diameter, tensile strength and winding, so you can count on consistent performance in practice. Certificates or datasheets are available on request.

In addition to annealed wire, we also supply double-loop and single-loop bale ties – together forming our complete baling wire range for the recycling industry. This means you always have a solution that fits your application and equipment.
