Doppstadt keeps recycling atop its list

The Velbert, Germany-based Doppstadt Group and its managing director Ferdinand Doppstadt say the company will be staying on course with a business strategy “focusing even more on recycling technology, aligning its product range to this field alone.”

In late 2019, the company announced the formation of Langenberger Innovation Group (LIG), which will manage brands and products pertinent to the wider minerals, raw materials and biofuels sectors, including forestry chippers.

This differentiated growth strategy follows the aim of ensuring best-in-class products and services for each respective field, according to Doppstadt Umwelttechnik GmbH CEO Gerd Schreier. “The Doppstadt name has an excellent reputation in recycling,” says Schreier. “We not only launched great new machines at the beginning of 2020, we have already embarked on further plans to live up to our reputation.”

The company announced the availability of its Inventhor Type 6 and Methor shredders, plus separation technology like the SWS, in May.

Doppstadt says it also has plans to launch new screening machines soon while also pushing development on a three-fraction screening machine and new versions of its SM 620 and 720 Flex machines. Doppstadt also says it is beginning development on a fast shredder to replace the AK series in the long term “while serving additional application areas.”

The equipment maker says it also will be increasing its range of electric-powered machinery. “This additional focus will allow us to respond even more quickly and accurately to the demands of recyclers for innovative technology,” states Schreier.

Many of the new mobile units also are available as stationary units. Doppstadt indicates increasingly stringent legislation and a trend toward centralization of materials to be processed have increased demand for stationary machinery.

“We have an innovative project development team with the corresponding project leadership capabilities, so we’re well prepared for the upcoming challenges,” comments Doppstadt Systemtechnik GmbH CEO Henning Strunz. “We provide our customers with optimum solutions from basic engineering to final turnkey units,” he adds.

The Doppstadt Group includes Doppstadt Umwelttechnik GmbH and Doppstadt Systemtechnik GmbH with locations in Velbert and Wülfrath, Germany, and Doppstadt Calbe GmbH based in the town of Calbe, Germany.

The newly formed LIG is responsible for machinery in the biofuels, minerals and raw materials sectors, while water-based separation engineering products have been transferred to WIMA, a subsidiary of LIG.
