At your service: How IEG’s certified power units prioritize safety and durability.

At IEG, reliability and safety are at the forefront of our operations. As an industry leader in providing innovative, superior quality solutions for the waste industry, our cutting-edge compaction equipment sets the standard for efficiency.

Inside and out, our equipment is tested and assured—a rigorous process that ensures increased durability and reduced downtime—and it all starts with our Underwriters Laboratories- (UL-) and Electrical Testing Laboratories- (ETL-) certified power units.

When it comes to waste compaction equipment, dependability is everything. The flow of waste never stops, so neither should your compactor. With a UL 508A- and ETL-certified power unit, signifying that a product has been tested and certified to meet specific safety standards by nationally recognized testing labs, operators can have peace of mind knowing their compactors are compliant and in top condition.

Every component of the power unit is submitted to Intertek and UL, which oversee the certification process, and assessed for performance, electrical safety and voltage requirements. Units also undergo quarterly audits to examine components and determine whether they are compliant and properly tested.

These audits include a “hipot test,” where high voltage is applied to the insulation to ensure it can withstand electrical stress, as well as leak and pressure testing.

While competitors might charge an extra fee to supply certified power units, IEG differentiates itself by UL- and ETL-certifying its units and replacement parts as a standard process.

Having the machine up and running is important for some of these locations in emergency situations because nobody wants garbage or recyclables to pile up inside of their warehouses; it can be hazardous.” — Adam Julien, director of engineering, IEG
