VZi nitrogen-inerted pre-shredder

Safe solutions for recycling hazardous substances of any type

Designed to complement the sturdy and reliable universal pre-shredder (VZ), the VZi pre-shredder (VZi) with controlled and monitored nitrogen-inerting system represents CHEMA‘s innovative response when it comes to shredding volatile, flammable and explosive substances. Thanks to the unique stand-alone design for batchwise operation, this shredder is the first choice for the extension of existing processes or as first element of a new line.
