Columbus Mckinnon shredder installed - Installations - at Lakin Tire West recycling facility - Brief Article

Recycling Today, March, 2002

Tire recycler Lakin Tire West, Santa Fe Springs, Calif., has added another tire shredding system made by Columbus McKinnon Corp. (CM), Sarasota, Fla., to its array of processing equipment. The shredder is the fourth CM unit purchased by Lakin Tire.

Lakin Tire West processes more than 10 million fires annually, selling some tires whole into the re-treading market, but processing the majority for tire-derived fuel and civil engineering applications.

"The Columbus McKinnon tire shredder was chosen because of its reliability and for its ability to process fires that are cleanly cut with very little exposed wire," says Rick Colyar, national sales manager for CM.
