A new shredder, taking shape on the factory floor — Oxford-bound.
This is part of a new processing line currently in build at our equipment supplier, ahead of installation at our Chalgrove site in Oxfordshire.
The Front End of Recovery
Heavy steel, a serious feed throat, and the hydraulics to drive it — this is the front end of recovery, where end-of-life electronics first get reduced to a workable stream before separation and material recovery begin.
It's a useful reminder that scaling up e-waste recovery isn't software. It's machinery — built, tested, and commissioned piece by piece before a single tonne moves through it.
We'll share more once it's installed and running in Oxford.
If you have e-waste to move in the South of England, get in touch.
