H. Brown & Son Recycling

Long-standing UNTHA customer H. Brown & Son Recycling has invested in a new UNTHA shredder, switching from an XR to a ZR.

The Stoke-on-Trent based waste management firm has used UNTHA shredding technology within its alternative fuel production plant for over a decade. But following the launch of the new ZR pre-shredder, last Autumn, Browns will switch out its trusty XR, after 11 years of operational service. The new machine will process the same variety of input materials – a multifaceted mix of commercial, industrial and other bulky wastes – transforming them into a 200mm fuel for UK Waste to Energy conversion.

Following extensive on-site trials, Browns has discovered it can increase its throughputs by up to 30%, thanks to UNTHA’s ongoing innovation.

The two-shaft UNTHA ZR2400 has been fitted with the H waste table, to best suit Browns’ RDF set-up.

We’re really impressed that the ZR comes with the same electric drive - and therefore the same power savings - that we’re used to. You don’t traditionally expect this performance from a two-shaft machine."
