Komptech Americas sent several portable plants to storm-ravaged areas of Texas and Florida that were affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
According to Komptech, it sent high-torque shredders, including Terminators and Crambos, for debris cleanup.
“We knew these states would need all available machines,” says Todd Dunderdale, Komptech Americas. “We began prepping our inventory to send out immediately. Though both states were hit by hurricanes, the damage each state faced was drastically different.
“The flooding in Texas required processing household debris, so we sent the Komptech Terminator, our high-torque, single-shaft shredder designed specifically for this task,” Dunderdale adds. “In Florida, we were dealing with wind damage, and processing a large amount of green waste and trees. In this case, the dual-shaft Crambo was the best shredder for the job, especially with the high degree of palm shredding required.”
