WENDT bolsters European manufacturing and service capabilities with Moros investment

WENDT, a U.S.-based shredding and separation recycling solutions company, has made a strategic equity investment in Moros Industrias Hidraulicas, an equipment manufacturer based in Zaragoza, Spain. This investment supports WENDT's ongoing efforts to strengthen its global footprint, enhance manufacturing capabilities, and deliver competitively priced, CE-compliant solutions to the European market, says the company.

A comprehensive range of products manufactured in Europe

"Our equity stake in Moros allows us to manufacture our full range of shredding and downstream equipment more efficiently and competitively in Europe," says Tom Wendt, President of WENDT. "By shipping our equipment complete, inspected, and tested from the Moros facility, European customers can trust the quality and performance of their systems. Additionally, the alliance allows us to deliver localized parts and service, providing seamless support for both existing and new shredder installations across Europe."

Moros will manufacture WENDT's comprehensive range of products, including its full range of automobile shredders, Z-Box air classifiers, magnet stands, specialized conveyors, tumbleback feeders, and sizing trommels.  

Enhanced support and testing 

The partnership also supports WENDT's commitment to providing localized parts and service. Warehousing parts closer to operations enables quicker response times and better support, aligned with European time zones.

Moros' state-of-the-art test center, featuring a WENDT 5050 shredder and a suite of advanced sorting technologies, including magnets, air classifiers, and sensor sorters, allows customers to test their materials on-site, ensuring solutions tailored to their specific applications.

"This partnership will elevate our already strong cooperation to another level. We know exactly what Moros brings to the table—top-quality manufacturing and localized service, which are what WENDT needs to replicate its North American success and become the market leader in Europe," says Miguel Clavel, president of Moros. "With its strategic equity investment in Moros, WENDT is uniquely positioned to deliver unmatched value, innovation, and support to the European recycling industry."
