AWC Considering Wool Press Program

September 28, 2007 - The American Sheep Industry Association (ASI) has received several inquiries from producers regarding the possibility of the American Wool Council (AWC) assisting in acquiring a quantity of Lyco wool presses from Australia. Therefore, ASI is assessing the extent of interest to determine if there would be sufficient orders of wool presses to completely fill a shipping container.

The Lyco Dominator wool press offers a fast cycle time, low fill height, front or rear loading and direct bale removal. The presses use Honda gas-powered engines, unless other specifications are requested in the order. Presses would be scheduled for delivery in January 2008.

The current price quote for these presses is between $11,000 and $12,000. A $1,000 non-refundable down payment would be required at the time of the order and would be applied to the purchase price of the press. If there is not sufficient interest to fill a shipping container, a full refund will be made.

To place your order or to receive more information, contact ASI via e-mail at info@sheepusa.org or call Rita at 303-771-3500, ext. 29, before Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2007.
