‘‘WITH CATERPILLAR ENGINES PRESENT IN BOTH THE CAT AND KOMPTECH MACHINES, ALL MOBILE EQUIPMENT ON SITE HAS A 35% POLLUTANT REDUCTION ON PREVIOUS MODELS AND MEET EU STAGE IIIA EMISSIONS STANDARDS."

Komptech Sales Manager, Finning


At the heart of this operation are Finning sourced mobile machines, best able to handle this demanding workload and supported throughout their lifecycle by trusted engineers. Dean Turner, Account Manager for Finning Caterpillar stated: “With the Arkwright site being a new build facility, it was a clean sheet of paper, new development and new design. There was a clear opportunity for Finning to spec from day one of the consultancy process. With myself working in partnership with Julian Lamb (Komptech Sales Manager for Finning) we were able to identify the equipment needs from both a Caterpillar and Komptech perspective.


“A good example of this is the combination of machines selected to work at the front end of the composting process (where the green waste is shredded). The Cat 938K Waste Handlers were the ideal compliment for Komptech’s Crambo 5200, with the 938K high tip bucket enabling all waste materials to be processed through the Crambo shredding chamber. The ability for Julian and I to work together on the same contract has been key to ensuring the full compatibility of machines within processes such as this.”


The support, facilitating Arkwright’s workload from both a sustainable and operational viewpoint, has been instrumental in Finning’s offering. Minimising machine pollutants in the enclosed facility is essential to maintaining a safe working environment for the SITA UK employees, Julian Lamb explains how this was achieved: “With Caterpillar engines present in both the Cat and Komptech machines, all mobile equipment on site has a 35% pollutant reduction on previous models and meet EU Stage IIIA emissions standards. For example, the Komptech Crambo 5,200 shreds 80-90 tonnes of waste per hour, while only using approximately 45 litres of fuel in compliance with the Komptech Green Efficiency model. This allowed SITA UK to have confidence that the plant’s carbon footprint is kept to a minimum, whilst maintaining high productivity and keeping the workforce safe.”
