From bulky waste to recoverable material

Americorp Plus industrial solid waste shredding plant

Bulky waste takes up meters of plant space, makes every transport trip more expensive and increases environmental risk if not managed properly.

Americorp Plus shreds it at the source: volume drops, transport costs less and what used to go out loose is ready for recycling.

We work with UNTHA, our European technology partner, with equipment for 11 different types of material.

Energy recovery

Turn your waste into useful, clean energy

Americorp Plus shredders can be integrated into Waste to Energy systems, making it possible to use waste as alternative fuels and significantly reduce the volumes sent to final disposal, with world-class technology specialized in shredding waste for thermal processes, energy recovery or RDF (refuse-derived fuel) plants.

This allows companies to:

  • Reduce the use of fossil fuels
  • Lower their carbon footprint
  • Generate energy from their own waste

This technology transforms organic and industrial waste into electricity and heat, using advanced gasification and controlled incineration processes. This not only reduces the amount of waste in landfills, but also harnesses its energy value to generate renewable electricity and thermal energy for various industries, including mining, manufacturing and processing plants.

Energy recovery is the next step toward more efficient, profitable and sustainable waste management.
