M&J Recycling raises the bar in Secondary Waste Shredding

For decades, M&J Recycling has been the benchmark for primary waste processing thanks to its industry-leading pre-shredders. Today, the company is taking another major step forward – redefining what operators can expect from secondary shredding. With the introduction of its advanced fine-shredder technology, purpose-built for demanding applications such as RDF and SRF production, M&J Recycling is once again shaping the future of waste processing.

As a specialist in industrial waste shredding, M&J Recycling has grown into one of the world’s most respected suppliers across the waste and recycling sector. Its durable and dependable shredders support operations in energy-from-waste (EfW), hazardous waste, incineration, landfill, recycling, cement production, biomass, and composting. They are widely relied upon for processing MSW, C&I waste, C&D waste, WEEE, metals, plastics, paper, bulky waste, and wood.

“We now have more than 1,300 installations worldwide - primarily pre-shredders, which have become our hallmark,” says Dan Fairest, Area Sales Manager at M&J Recycling. “However, we are now gaining significant traction in the secondary shredding market with our fine-shredders, which feature cutting-edge technology and our proprietary eDrive system - offering performance levels not previously seen in the industry.”

A New Standard in Energy-Efficient Fine-Shredding

M&J’s fine-shredders are engineered with one core objective: to deliver top-tier output quality at the lowest possible operational cost. Years of development have gone into ensuring that each machine offers durability, serviceability, and consistently high performance.

The cutting system features a friction-optimised shaft, advanced pusher, and intelligent level control, enabling a smooth and steady material flow. Crucially, the system avoids heat generation, allowing operators to run at full production speed without risk of thermal buildup or plastic melting-related downtime.

Energy efficiency is where the eDrive system truly excels. By drawing only the power required at any given moment, it eliminates unnecessary heat loss and dramatically reduces the need for cooling. Operators can achieve energy savings of up to 40%, while also benefitting from minimal daily maintenance. Once the rotor and static knives are set, no ongoing adjustments are needed – keeping operations streamlined and costs low.

Built to Grow With You

M&J Recycling believes that a high-quality shredder should be a long-term investment, which is why its fine-shredders are designed with flexibility and future needs in mind. Screens and knives can be changed quickly and easily, minimising downtime and allowing the machine to adapt as materials, regulations, or business requirements evolve. Coupled with the efficiency, reliability, and performance delivered by the eDrive-powered cutting system, these shredders give operators a robust, future-proof platform for maximising resource recovery and operational efficiency.
