UNTHA LR1400 triples waste wood throughput for Invica’s biocarbon plant

When Invica’s biocarbon plant began facing challenges with variable feedstock, operational efficiency quickly came under strain, so Invica turned once again to our waste management experts for support.

Invica Industries (Invica) is a leading provider of solid fuels for domestic, commercial, and industrial markets. The business is driven by a strong focus on sustainability and a commitment to delivering measurable emissions reductions, while enabling customers to actively lower the carbon footprint of their own products and processes. Backed by decades of experience and a passion for innovation, Invica has invested heavily in pioneering technologies that create greener alternatives for the future.

Its biocarbon plant, designed to transform waste wood into a high-quality, lower-emission fuel source, is a prime example of this forward-thinking ethos – championing efficiency, resilience, and resource recovery to set new standards across energy, water, manufacturing, and infrastructure.

Our biocarbon plant was struggling to cope, and without a reliable shredder, it simply wasn’t economical. The LR1400 turned that around. By fixing the sizing issue, we’ve almost tripled our throughput and completely changed the outlook of the project.

The decision to hire the LR1400 gave the business the flexibility to act quickly, without tying up capital, and UNTHA’s pilot facility provided the perfect reassurance that the shredder would perform exactly as promised. For Invica, that confidence has been invaluable.
