TANA brings decades of experience.
TANA was established in 1971 and has been at the forefront of designing and manufacturing robust machinery for the purposes of solid waste management ever since. With decades of experience on the needs and requirements of landfill and waste management operators, TANA launched its UK distributor TANA Recycling Machinery UK, with an aim to bring a touch of Nordic expertise and engineering know-how to the UK. TANA Oy is based in Finland, but TANA Recycling Machinery UK operates out of its South Yorkshire headquarters in Doncaster.
We are lucky enough to have the most versatile machine on the market in regard to the TANA Shark Shredder. Be it general waste, mattresses, tyres, wood, plastic, C&I, C&D the Shark can handle them all and more. Pair that with excellence in service and you have a winning formula.
There are many applications to which the TANA Shark shredder can be used. The TANA Shark can shred all kinds of end-of-life tyres. These could come from cars, trucks, aircrafts, and heavy-duty vehicles and can be really difficult to recycle. The TANA Shark uses high-torque shredders to make it possible to shred tyres to an 80 mm particle size in just one pass and separates most of the metal wires directly from the shredded material flow on the conveyor. The steel wiring is removed in the shredding process and by an over-band magnet in the unloading conveyor. Once separated, shredded tyres and metals can be sold and reused in many ways.
For packaging materials such as hard and soft plastics, cardboard, paper, wires, paper rolls, containers, aluminium, gypsum, or any reject from production line of a manufacturing process can all be shredded using the TANA Shark. TANA shredders are slow speed and use a single shaft with high torque that optimises the machines functions. Because of TANA shredders unique features downtime is minimal as processes are in place to ensure the treatment process runs smoothly and efficiently without breaking down or requiring a ‘cool off’ period.
Get more out of your investment as the TANA Shark’s low-rev and high torque process makes light work for difficult materials such as mattresses, cables, wires, and ragger wires. Some of these materials are loathed by landfill operators as especially mattresses contain a mixture of complex materials such as textiles, latex, foam, springs, and wood that are difficult to recycle. The magnetic separation of metals can generate additional income, as it can be sold on for recycling purposes.
One advantage of the TANA Control System is that it has 12 pre-programmed operating programs for diverse types of materials and purposes of shredding. TANA Shark shredders take care of the whole shredding process resulting in making 20% more profit. Overall, it is capable to produce a broad range of homogenous particle sizes, its unique and versatile process allows for a productive recycling of the widest range of materials and shreds the toughest materials such as shingles and big tyres.
