[Characteristics]

Large household electric appliances (such as refrigerators and washing machines), bicycles, lumber and other bulky refuse are shredded by TAKUMA's swing hammer type shredder.

Then, ferrous materials are recovered by a magnetic separator and formed into blocks by a baling press for easy transportation.

In addition, combustibles and incombustibles are separated and disposed of by burning, and landfilling, respectively.

[Actual results]

TAKUMA has installed 10 recycling plants in Japan.
