AbyPer S.A.

What AbyPer S.A. does

AbyPer S.A. is a privately held Argentine industrial equipment manufacturer founded in 1977 and headquartered in San Martín, Buenos Aires Province, operating from a single facility with approximately 15 employees. The company runs two product brands: ABECOM, which covers volume-reduction and recycling machinery (vertical, horizontal, double-chamber, and multi-material baling compactors; briquetting presses; bagging compactors; hydraulic shears; tire cutters; and TE/TM/TV shredder series for industrial, hospital, and glass waste); and PERFOMATIC, which addresses the metalworking industry with hydraulic balancing presses, high-speed tube cutters, tube punching centers, and auto-riveting machines based on Swiss SPOT CLINCH technology. Core technology is anchored by two Argentine patents—Patent No. 211676 (1977) for the founding ABECOM compaction platform and Patent No. 243785 (1988) for PERFOMATIC tube punching systems—and is complemented by regional representation agreements for complementary OEMs (ATTEXOR, SSI Shredding Systems, RUF GmbH, COLUMBIA, and GUIDETTI).

Revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales of industrial machinery directly from the company's San Martín showroom and through a network of exclusive regional distributors covering Colombia, Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, and Uruguay. Customers span municipal governments and waste management operators (e.g., ECOPUNTO San Miguel, Cooperativa de Recuperadores Urbanos del Oeste), metalworking manufacturers (automotive, furniture, construction), industrial manufacturers, and wood processors. The company markets through its website (abyper.com.ar), participation in Latin American trade shows (ARGENPLAS, EXPOPLAST, AMBIENTAL, GOBIERNO Y SERVICIOS PUBLICOS, ENVASE), and its regional distributor channel. After-sales technical service, warranty support, and technical consultation on equipment selection accompany each sale. Pricing is not publicly disclosed.
