Metso has received orders to supply a total of seven M&J 4000S waste shedders to three waste incineration customers in China.

The new shredders will operate in the Zhejihang, Jiangsu and Xinjiang provinces.

"We are very proud that high-profile waste incineration companies in China are relying on our proven shredding technology, which is based on powerful and tailored knife designs and open cutting tables. These distinct technical advantages benefit customers who need a robust, high-capacity shredder for continuous use at a high run rate, even with hard and abrasive materials," says Ou Zeng, Metso's sales manager for waste recycling products in China.

During the 13^th Five-Year Plan period (2016-2020), China has decided to strengthen its efforts to improve the quality of the environment and enhance environmental governance. Goals for waste treatment are 95 percent for urban areas and 90 percent for rural areas. Efforts will also focus on enhancing infrastructure, with sewage treatment available in all counties and major towns by 2020.
