Agg-Pro adds Arjes Impaktor dealership: shredder fleet implications for UK recyclers

30 Second Briefing
Agg-Pro has been appointed exclusive dealer for Arjes Impaktor GmbH across England, Scotland and Wales, adding five twin-shaft, slow-speed shredders for wood and green waste, stumps, stone and concrete, demolition debris, municipal and industrial waste, tyres and scrap metal, with two further models in development. The range includes the Impaktor 250 and Impaktor 350, conceived and produced by founder Norbert Hammel, who built the first twin-shaft slow-speed shredder in 1989. For UK recyclers and demolition contractors, this expands Agg-Pro’s existing McCloskey, Jonsson, GIPO, McCloskey Environmental and Terracon offering following its SMT/Volvo-backed takeover 18 months ago.
Technical Brief
- Impaktor units are configured to handle both mineral (stone, concrete) and ductile (tyres, scrap) feedstocks.
- Arjes machines are positioned to treat municipal and industrial waste where variable feed grading is expected.
Our Take
With Agg-Pro already aligned to McCloskey International and Volvo via SMT, adding Arjes Impaktor gives UK customers a more complete in-house route from primary crushing through to slow-speed shredding, which can simplify service contracts and fleet standardisation across England, Scotland and Wales.
In our Infrastructure coverage, there are relatively few product stories that add five existing machine models plus two in development at once, suggesting this dealership materially broadens Agg-Pro’s offering rather than being a marginal line addition.
The focus on twin-shaft, slow-speed shredders positions Arjes Impaktor as a complementary fit to McCloskey Environmental’s higher-speed equipment, which is likely to appeal to C&D recyclers looking to handle both bulky feedstock reduction and downstream sizing with a single supplier group.
