The Eggersmann Teuton Z50
A tracked, mobile slow-speed shredder built to run hard, maintained easily, and reconfigured in minutes — the machine behind everything EnviroShred does.
The Eggersmann Teuton Z50
The only slow-speed shredder with a screen basket available for hire in WA.
Why the Z50
The Screen Basket System
The Z50 is the most versatile shredder in its class because of one thing: the screen basket. Choose between strip and hex-shaped baskets in a range of sizes to match your input material and desired output — whether that’s a final sized product for green waste and timber, export-spec shredded tyre, or clean recovered steel from mattress processing. Swapping baskets takes minutes, not a workshop visit.
Why a Slow-Speed Shredder
Slow-speed shredders use a slow-turning rotor and exceptionally high torque to tear and crush difficult, bulky material — rather than fracturing it through high-RPM impact like a grinder. That difference matters: high torque tears through construction waste, brick, steel, tyres and mattresses that would stop a high-speed grinder cold, with real operational, financial and safety benefits over the alternative.
Dry Hire
Machine-only hire that puts you in control — your crew, your schedule. Minimum 40 hours/week, mobilisation covered by the customer. Single machine through to a full equipment package.
Clean Output, Every Time
An overband magnet recovers ferrous metal from the material stream automatically, so what comes out the other end is ready for recycling or reuse — no separate sorting step required.
