UNTHA - Recycling Shredders

The reliable brand!

INDIVIDUAL SHREDDING SOLUTIONS 1

EXPERIENCE AND KNOW-HOW MAKE EVERYTHING POSSIBLE People are fascinated by jaguars. But why? What is their secret?

As one of the most impressive and strongest big cats, its most striking features are its tough, strong, powerful body, its dynamic movements and fearsome adaptability.

The individual shredding solutions from UNTHA shredding technology are just as tough, strong and adaptable. With decades of experience, technical ability and highly qualified engineers, dedicated to every application, we can deliver highly customised solutions to meet our customers’ demands to provide total satisfaction.

Ground-breaking and trend-setting shredding solutions are guaranteed by our in-house development department. Numerous patents and innovations, proving our leading role in shredding technology, are supplied by our dedicated Research and Development Centre.

Reliability Each UNTHA shredding machine contains visible and invisible forces. The machine’s sturdy design, powerful cutting system and distinctive performance are visible forces. However, all our employees‘ experience, innovative strength, problem-solving skills and high- quality thinking showcased in the heart and soul of our machines is not immediately obvious. It is all of these attributes that give our machines the distinctive reliability that our customers value around the world.

The cutting discs are arranged in such a way that one cutting

UNTHA RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT CENTRE – WHERE WE CREATE SOLUTIONS FOR PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS In 2000, UNTHA opened a modern research and development centre where trials and tests with customers’ specific materials are simulated under practical conditions.

The focus is always on the customer and on fulfilling each task in the best possible manner. The technology centre enables us to gain important experience and data so we can offer the ideal shredding solution for any given task.

The latest technological and scientific findings are also very important for our development department, where they are used for the development of innovative systems and for the optimisation of shredders.
