RECYCLING & WASTE HANDLING Liverpool waste site expands fleet with Finlay Central
North West based CCC Waste has taken delivery of two new Terex Finlay machines from Finlay Central – taking its fleet to 10 machines operating across the company’s four depots. The introduction of the Terex Finlay
J-1175+ Jaw Crusher and the Terex Finlay 694+ Supertrak from Finlay Central at CCC Waste’s Liverpool site – based in Kirkby – means the facility is now well-placed to deliver industry-leading recycling targets. The company, which has four bases around Merseyside and the surrounding area, recycles 100 per cent of demolition materials and 99 per cent of skip hire materials. At the Kirkby site, the J-1175+ is working in tandem with the 694+ screen, to crush waste material before it can be fed through the triple deck screen, with the 694+ producing clean material at minus 4,10mm and 20mm. This is then stockpiled and sold for pipe bedding. The Terex Finlay J-1175+, incorporates a heavy duty crusher and undercarriage, with exceptional on site mobility. The machine also includes a new Tier 4 engine, which helps CCC Waste in its ongoing goal to reduce its carbon footprint.
Along with quick set up times and ease of transport, the crusher includes a heavy duty vibrating grizzly feeder with automatic control to regulate the feed, plus a hydrostatic drive and reverse crushing action to assist in clearing blockages.
The machine’s automatic variable speed also ensures continuous choke feeding of the crushing chamber for optimal productivity. Established in 1986 by Ian Munroe – who started out in business with one tipping truck –
CCC Waste is now run by Ian’s son Sean.
It is one of the largest waste recycling centres in the UK, supplying 15,000 tonnes of recycled crushed brick, concrete, soil and sand a week to Blue Chip clients operating in the utilities sector.
Sean Munroe said: “We decided to incorporate a Terex J-1175+ into our machinery fleet as its full efficiency is second to none and we needed a machine that can cope with demanding conditions. “We have worked with Finlay Central for 15 years and have a good, strong relationship with them.”

460kg, enabling us to transport this awkward material more easily, thus opening new doors for our recyclables back into the market.” Tom Paterson,
Managing Director of Patersons Waste in Glasgow, stated, “To supplement our recent MRF installation, we
purchased the Marathon Gemini-Xtreme baler to
enable us to handle and transport our recyclables more efficiently. We are delighted with the baler’s performance both in terms of throughput and versatility. All products recovered from our MRF are now baled including papers, films, cardboard and rigid plastics, ensuring a more efficient and profitable operation“.

O’Dell & Sons and Hawes in London, Armstrong based in Bolton, DRS Demolition in Cornwall and TOM Waste in Scotland.

material baler with a vertical tie system, which is ideal for baling light alloys, paper, plastics, PET and similar waste
stream materials, producing a standard 762mm X 1219mm X 1524mm bale with an average cycle time of 34 seconds. The full penetration ram ensures optimum compaction and full bale ejection. The programmable controller allows both manual and semi-automatic operation and the twin cross cylinders have power to spare from the 20HP motor. Wire guides ensure quick and efficient bale tying and the guide design allows easy clean-out. The Gemini-Xtreme also features a reversible and adjustable bolt-on shear blade and is also available with an optional hydraulic bale door release system and variable speed conveyor.
