We show how our machines and technologies help to optimise processes, save resources and bring workable solutions into practice.
The DX160/600 shredder in the service of ecology: how REPARAF turns candles into paraffin products and fuel
Company REPARAF s.r.o. Zohor was founded as an enthusiastic project of a young environmental activist in 2012. By way of collection and mechanical-thermal processing of waste tombstone candles, it produces antifreeze fruit candles, recycled tombstone candle blocks of wax for other uses. In 2024, the company procured a DX160/600_16.7kW twin-rotor shredder, which forms one of two important parts of its processing technology. Currently (2024), the company’s waste candle collection and recovery service will serve a region with a population of 500,000, collecting 100 to 200 tonnes of waste, from which it will produce 50 to 100 tonnes of recycled paraffin products. In addition, the waste plastic thus obtained serves as valuable fuel for the cement kiln.
How DETOX saves hundreds of euros per month with DX160/600 technology
DETOX, s.r.o. is one of the most trusted providers of hazardous waste collection and treatment services in Slovakia. For its operation in Trnava in 2023, the company purchased a DX160/600_18.5kW twin-rotor shredder. In the shredder, they crush the containers with residual harmful substances in order to reduce their volume. This is the third shredder that DETOX has purchased from our company since 2003. Time-tested quality?! Customer experience: out of 4 containers before crushing they get 1 container of crushed stone. The crusher will easily cover their current needs – 20 tons per month. At the landfill, they pay €230 per tonne less, saving on “air transport”. They recovered the investment costs within the warranty period of the machine.
ARIES160/900 helps FENEGE transform aluminium waste into industrial briquettes
FENEGA, s.r.o. was founded in 2005 as a family-owned company for trading in scrap metal. The company shares many years of experience in waste treatment with steel producers. On the basis of their needs, they adapt chemically, shape, strength of about 200 tons of metal waste per month so that they can be used in various metallurgical processes (deoxidation, desulphurization, …). In 2024, the company procured a two-stage four-rotor crusher ARIES160/900_54kW with a tipping hopper and an extendable second crushing stage for its plant in Kračúnovce. In the machine they crush aluminium spokes and aluminium cans. The grit is then briquetted into the unique shape of deoxidation briquettes used in steel mills.
