In this series of articles, we will be sharing exclusive coverage from APF 2024.
Celebrating its 25th anniversary at this year’s show was CRJ Services, a provider of waste, recycling and forestry equipment solutions which was recently named Jenz Dealer of the Year, in recognition of its commitment to innovation, durability and efficiency.
Michael Simons, national sales manager, said: “We've had the Jenz dealership now for two and a half years, which has really cemented our place in the forestry and the arb industry. And that's grown through great customers, and through having great backup and support.”
On its stand, CRJ was able to showcase live demonstrations of a Jenz 583R chippertruck and a BA926D high-speed shredder.
Emphasising the diverse applications to which the machines could be put, Michael said: “The BA926 is a twin-gear machine, which means the rotor can run at 500 RPM, very similar to a chipper, and it can also run at 1 ,000 RPM, which is that of a shredder as well.
"Here it's been tackling brash material, making quite a nice product out of it. But that can be changed then to do variety of scrap wood, of green waste, even logs. It's such a diverse machine.
“The 583R chipper truck has a 1,200 mm wide in -feed, this one has a hydraulic blower and it's been doing roundwood here, but will do a variety of brash material as well, producing a really nice chip. It’s a good all -round machine.”
