Boulware Equipment Installs Turn-Key Wood Scrap Grinding System for Propak in Siloam Springs, Arkansas

At Boulware Equipment LLC, we design and build advanced wood waste recycling and dust collection systems for manufacturing and industrial companies worldwide. Our goal is to help businesses reduce waste handling costs, improve operational efficiency, and achieve long-term landfill avoidance through engineered automation and dependable processing equipment.

One of our recent projects involved working with Propak in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, where pallet scrap and wood waste generated during daily operations required a more efficient processing solution. Boulware Equipment delivered a complete grinding and recycling system designed to automate wood scrap grinding.


The Challenge: Managing Pallet Scrap Efficiently

As a large logistics and packaging operation, Propak generates a continuous stream of broken pallets, damaged boards, and other wood scrap. Without an automated system, managing this material can become labor intensive and costly, often resulting in landfill disposal.

The team at Propak in Siloam Springs, Arkansas needed a dependable solution that could handle consistent wood scrap grinding, separate metal from processed wood, and convert pallet scrap into reusable material while supporting landfill avoidance.


The Solution: Cresswood Grinder + Proprietary Boulware Automation

To address these challenges, Boulware Equipment installed a powerful Cresswood grinder specifically designed for pallet scrap processing. The grinder was integrated into a proprietary Boulware Wood Scrap Processing System, creating a fully automated solution that provides:

  • Reliable wood scrap grinding for pallet scrap and wood waste

  • Automatic metal separation to remove nails, screws, and fasteners

  • Clean recycled wood fiber suitable for wood product recycling

  • Conveyor automation to move material efficiently from grinding to loadout

  • Reduced labor and improved plant workflow

With this system installed, Propak in Siloam Springs, Arkansas now processes pallet scrap efficiently while transforming wood waste into a valuable recycled material.
