About KenBay
KenBay began operations in the United Kingdom over 20 years ago as a waste disposal company. Realizing that over 80% of dumpster space was air, KenBay developed the Rotopac industrial trash compactors that are now being used throughout the world to increase the efficiency and cost effectiveness of industrial waste disposal.
The RotoPac trash compactor was well received in the UK and Ireland before KenBay began operation in the US in 1995. Engineering advancements in the ensuing years have improved and refined the RotoPac trash compactor. The unique design of the RotoPac trash compactor is patented and is now manufactured in the US along with the K100 line of compactors.
KenBay also provides a stainless steel version of the RotoPac trash compactor as well as a marine, food industry, explosion proof, plastics, and bin compactors suitable for almost every conceivable waste compacting application. Now we have expanded the success of the heavy duty RotoPac to smaller compactors with the line of K100 compactors.
