IPS, Sierra Strike Marketing Agreement

Sierra will sell IPS models to the scrap metals industry.

IPS Balers Inc., Baxley, Ga., and Sierra International Machinery LLC, Bakersfield, Calif., have announced a marketing agreement that will allow Sierra to sell IPS two-ram and horizontal balers to scrap metal recyclers.

The announcement was made jointly by IPS president Sidney Wildes and Sierra president John Sacco at the ISRI Annual Convention in Las Vegas in late April.

The agreement covers a line of two-ram and horinzontal IPS  balers, according to a joint news release. "The machines are engineered to withstand a rigorous production schedule of scrap materials by offering the widest charge box in the industry and a pre-compression ram that virtually eliminates bridging," according to the release.
