The recycling industry is growing rapidly, and many waste disposal companies require specialized recycling operations. This has brought a new set of challenges to the machines used in recycling. In response, Liebherr continues to develop machines and equipment for every need and application, including waste handling.

Liebherr manufactures different components itself and the company offers capable and efficient machines including mobile material handling machines, crawler material handlers, wheel loaders, dozers and crawler loaders for sorting, separating and loading recyclables and solid waste quickly and reliably.

The LH 22 C Industry material handler offers a sturdy and compact design, making it particularly suitable for waste handling. With the latest engine and hydraulics technology, developed in-house by Liebherr, the main focus is on fuel efficiency and enhancing material handling performance. The attachment of the machine is available in a variety of versions and is always optimally matched to the respective application.

The recycling industry is highly varied. This generation of Liebherr material handlers is adept at a wide range of tasks including feeding a conditioner or crusher, loading and unloading trucks and containers, sorting materials and waste products, and piling up and moving materials of all kinds. The interaction between the hydraulics and electronics guarantees fast and powerful movements when handling materials and provides efficient and precise work for challenging sorting tasks.
