    Brief

    This is a capital equipment procurement opportunity for HMP Swaleside's woodwork department. The facility is seeking to acquire a briquetter machine to process woodwork waste and byproducts. A briquetter compresses wood shavings, sawdust, and other wood waste into compact, uniform briquettes for efficient storage, handling, and potential reuse or energy generation. Suppliers should understand this is a capital expenditure (CAPEX) project for prison workshop operations, and the equipment must meet security and safety standards appropriate for a custodial institution. Interested suppliers should provide specifications on capacity, power requirements, space footprint, maintenance needs, and compliance certifications.
