Tallahassee, Florida-based Marpan Recycling opened a single- stream MRF in 2011. The company had extensive experience in C&D processing. This experience caused company president Kim Williams to break from tradition and go with the screens he knew could get the job done.
Single-stream system suppliers were all using a disc screen, and it had several disadvantages. “I just thought I didn’t want that kind of screen,” Williams recalls. He found a better way with General Kinematics.
“GK makes a fantastic product. Whatever they do, they do it over the top with the quality they put into it.” – Kim Williams
