Lindner Recycling Opens New Headquarters
Recycling solutions supplier marked its 75th anniversary with the opening of its new headquarters in Austria.
Lindner Recyclingtech GmbH, supplier of shredders and other recycling solutions, announced the grand opening of its new headquarters in Spittal/Drau, Austria. The new plant doubles the production area to 150,000 ft2. According to Manuel Lindner, owner and managing director at Lindner, the increased area will be used to increase capacity and bring the manufacture of many machine parts in-house.

Production capacity is also expected to benefit from automation, with physically intensive processes shifting from employees to production machines. Lindner cites increasing demand for its recycling equipment as the impetus for its investment, which totaled around 48.5 million euros.
The new site also includes around 38,000 ft2 of office space. The building is designed to be energy independent, with high efficiency mechanical systems and photovoltaic panels.
A fully automatic circular welding machine is used for producing Urraco shafts, the heart of Lindner’s mobile twin-shaft shredders.

Lindner was founded in 1948. In 2013, the subsidiary Lindner Washtech was created to develop and install complete washing and sorting systems for thermoplastics.
