Recycling
“One big feature which stood out was the ease of operation for changing knives and screens, we have found it very maintenance friendly which is particularly good for our operators.
“Throughput is extremely high at 60-70tph, it is a real beast and makes the operator sweat as they must keep up with it!”
Increased processing efficiency
The new Peterson 2710D is ideally suited to site clearances for biomass production and can process a wide range of materials including green waste, waste wood, logs, roots, stumps, and many types of vegetation. All of which is ideal to be fed into the Envar biomass operation and offers the ability to take the machine to their sister sites.
With faster processing this has equated to reduced operating hours which has allowed Envar to hire the machine out (with a skilled operator).

Neil, continued, “Hiring the machine is a massive opportunity for us. Within the Heathcote group of companies, we can offer both the hire, onward haulage of materials and placement of the products that are processed.”
