The best in shearing,
shredding and cable stripping
L i v e f ro m K a r l s r u h e :
For the second time, the recycling and
construction sectors joined forces for
the Recycling Aktiv and Tiefbau Live
trade shows, featuring 1 500 machines
and pieces of equipment. The main
trends spotted by Recycling
International were: the fast-growing
emergence of smart warning systems
to detect scrap fires early; greater
emphasis on mobility; increased
efforts on sorting higher quality scrap;
and wood recycling as a fast-growing
niche.
TACKLING WOOD SCRAP
Among the recycling equipment and
technology providers were familiar
names and brands such as IUT/
Taurus, Lefort, Hammel, Komptech,
IUT’s Peter Beyeler showing off their latest piece of refur-
bished equipment, a 700 tonne cutting force Taurus shear
baler. Immediately after the Recycling Aktiv trade show,
the machine was shipped to its new owner.
Ta-po’s Roberto van den Kieboom: ‘Our
solutions help reach the higher purity and
quality required by smelters.’
