swissRTec America of Kensington, NH, a company specializing in recycling technology, is celebrating its one-year anniversary in the United States.  swissRTec America, Inc., is a wholly-owned subsidiary of swissRTec International of Switzerland. The company sells technology and mechanical systems to the recycling industry on an international scale, and has recently expanded sales into the North American market. swissRTec is a leader in designing, building and commissioning turnkey e-waste, scrap metal and ASR (automotive shredder residue) recycling facilities.

swissRTec¹s core focus is the shredding, delamination and separation of valuable raw waste materials from waste compound materials such as electronic scrap, cables, printed circuit boards, mixed scrap metal,
aluminum composites and other items. Since expanding into the United States, swissRTec has been working on projects with several American companies in the scrap industry. ³The reception here in the States has been very good,² says Bernhard Mueggler, president and CEO of swissRTec America. ³This is especially true with the debut of one of our cornerstone products, the Kubota Vertical Shredder. The new technology available with this shredder meets the operating needs of today¹s companies. Our shredder provides optimal flexibility for serving various industries, and that, combined with the fine processing capabilities of our Delamination Mill, allows companies to process waste more efficiently. When you recycle, you cannot control your intake–you have to deal with the materials that come your way, but our shredder allows you to better adapt to what comes in, and thus make processing more productive and economical.²

swissRTec¹s mighty Kubota Vertical Shredder can process large and small domestic appliances, metal scrap and other bulky items. It breaks down and grinds up materials down to one inch or less in size in a single pass. This vertical shredder can be used as a stand-alone unit or in combination with other processing technology. Worldwide, close to 400 users have already taken advantage of its powerful breakers and multiple layers of grinders to process a broad variety of waste materials.

Looking forward, Mueggler is excited about swissRTec¹s growing opportunities within the North American market. ³I think there is a good future with ASR,² he says. ³There is a strong market there. A lot of high-value non-ferrous metals still wind up in landfills. We believe that with swissRTec¹s equipment, we can help separate ASR waste further, thus allowing companies to maximize their extraction of valuable materials. There is tremendous potential for growth–for American businesses in this industry and for us.²
