John Hanlon & Co Ltd is the UK’s leading specialist hire equipment and sales company. Established in 1973, the family-run business, now in its third generation has been at the forefront of the heavy equipment rental market for over fifty years, boasting a current fleet of over 300-wheel loaders, material handlers, shredders and screeners.
The company headquarters are in Bedfordshire, with a new depot in Doncaster for a growing Northern customer base. The team has been busy demonstrating the new Komptech Lacero all over the country this Autumn. The partnership with Komptech began back in 2016: a renowned manufacturer of recycling equipment such as drum screens, star screens, high-speed and low-speed shredders, and ballistic separators. The Komptech machinery is precision-designed for green, wood and industrial waste and the Lacero is the latest addition to the leading portfolio.
The Lacero High-Speed Grinder was in action at five locations across the country, demonstrating its prowess in green waste, compost over size, wood waste and log shredding. Nicknamed the ‘Beast’- onlookers were impressed by the down-swinging rotor with the 16 heavy duty teeth, 800hp+ CAT C18 engine that seamlessly shreds over 100 tons of wood and green waste per hour. With a throughput up to 400m3/h, the Lacero delivers ultimate high-speed performance shredding at the quietest settings.
Komptech are on a mission to establish its leading portfolio of machinery throughout the UK industrial waste sector. The trailblazing product line includes the indomitable ‘Terminator’ and ‘Equalizor’: slow-speed and medium-speed shredders respectively. This is complemented by further heavy-weight separators: ‘The Ballistor’ Ballistic and ‘The Metalfex’ Eddy current. With options for both mobile and stationery, Komptech is the brand to watch.
John Hanlon & Co Ltd was one of our Top Exhibitors at The Recycling 2024 Expo held at the flagship ExCeL, from 15-16 October.
