Renowned globally for its continued approach to innovation, Austrian-headquartered UNTHA has often used IFAT as a platform to unveil its latest engineering breakthroughs and performance capabilities. And this year looks set to be no different.
The premium shredder manufacturer has hinted at a number of advancements for the 2024 event. These include showcasing a new generation of the internationally acclaimed four shaft UNTHA RS shredders. This machine range has been supplied to thousands of customers around the world, over the last 50 years. But keen to uphold its ‘pioneer’ status when it comes to four shaft shredding technology, UNTHA’s R&D team has continued to develop new performance features that promise more uptime, operational ease, even simpler maintenance, and greater robustness.
There will be more enhanced technology in Hall B6 – Stand 127/226, as UNTHA showcases the latest version of its myUNTHA customer portal. Already a popular software product, the newest iteration of this digital tool will deliver more proactive maintenance, machine optimisation, and ease of aftercare benefits, for organisations around the world.
And because ‘seeing is believing’, UNTHA’s industry experts will be inviting visitors to sit back and witness what the firm’s shredders can really do, with a series of live demonstration opportunities throughout the week.
A high performance UNTHA XR3000RC mobil-e will be in daily operation in the VDMA outdoor area, shredding waste wood for biomass. VIPs will also have the opportunity to explore ‘behind the scenes’ at an operational site – Schenker Industrie- und Städtereinigungs GmbH. Located a short distance from the Messe München venue, this organisation – a satisfied customer of UNTHA – will demonstrate a number of different shredders tackling a range of bulky and difficult materials that other IFAT attendees won’t see elsewhere. This exclusive site visit – including free return shuttle transfer – also provides guests with the chance to talk to UNTHA colleagues from around the world, to discuss their own project requirements.
“The aim is to make IFAT an unforgettable experience for visitors,” said Peter Streinik, Head of Global Sales and Business Development at UNTHA shredding technology. “So this year we’re showcasing what happens when you draw upon a 50-year shredding heritage and a passion for forward-thinking innovation. We look forward to people seeing for themselves what UNTHA shredders can do.
“For example, there’s a reason the RS remains the industry’s favourite four shaft shredder, decades after it was first introduced to the market. Because customer requirements may become more challenging, but our commitment to solving these challenges, never stops. We keep innovating – to drive more performance capabilities, efficiencies and profits – and IFAT 2024 will highlight this perfectly.”
Offering a concluding thought, Peter added: “Because the stand was so busy in 2022, we also have more networking and private meeting spaces this year. So, we’re inviting people to make the most of the know-how of our many global shredding experts. We look forward to welcoming guests from across Europe, North and South America, Australia, Asia and more.”
