Vanheede is setting the course for even more efficient recycling with a state-of-the-art sorting plant at the Rumbeke site. The plant processes up to 100,000 tons of residual waste annually and can separate eight waste streams.
Since February 2023, the Sennebogen 825 E electric with its 14-metre reach and 32.8-tonne operating weight has been supporting the new sorting plant and is a prime example of sustainable technology. The electric material handler not only contributes to CO₂ reduction, but also saves up to 40% of operating costs compared to diesel-powered models.
Another advantage: the environmentally friendly operation in the production hall protects the health of the employees, who enjoy emission-free air quality in the workplace.
The Sennebogen 825 E is not only efficient, but also safe. The elevated cab position offers the operator an optimum view of the filling line, making work particularly precise and safe. The cab itself is pressurized and equipped with a Hepa filter to protect the driver from harmful particles in the air. A pane of bulletproof glass protects against potential hazards from gas cylinders and ensures a safe working environment – a point that is crucial for Vanheede.
Since its commissioning in February, the SENNEBOGEN 825 E has already completed over 1,000 operating hours and is now preparing to switch to two-shift and later even three-shift operation.
