ZB Group Logo

ZB Group helps companies recover value from their materials in an efficient, profitable and responsible way. They work to give every waste stream a second life, helping clients gain control, stability and margin in an increasingly demanding industrial environment.

With over 40 years of experience, ZB Group specialises in designing and manufacturing equipment for pre-shredding, shredding and material classification. They assess each project based on the input material, required production capacity, available space and recovery objectives, allowing them to define efficient and commercially viable solutions.

Industrial solutions for the
recycling and recovery
of metal scrap

ZB Group designs and implements complete solutions for treating and recovering value from metal scrap, adapted to the material, production capacity and recovery goals of each plant. Every project is unique, just like every client.
Each project is developed based on an analysis of the material, the required production capacity, the available space and the client’s recovery objectives. Based on this information, ZB Group defines the most suitable technical configuration, integrates the necessary equipment and supports the implementation of the solution through to commissioning.

Integrated cleaning
and sorting systems

In addition to shredding, ZB Group helps recovering more value from scrap by integrating aspiration, cleaning and sorting systems. De-Dust systems, Z-Boxes, magnetic drums and eddy current separators work together to produce cleaner, better-separated material streams and optimise overall process performance.

De-Dust systems remove dust and small, low-density particles generated during shredding, while the Z-Box uses counter-current airflow to separate light materials from heavier metals. Magnetic drums then recover ferrous metals and the eddy current separator (ECS) separates non-ferrous metals from the remaining waste. By combining these technologies, ZB Group creates an efficient integrated solution that improves material quality and increases the value of recovered metals.

Scrap shredding
and integrated systems

ZB Group integrates and combines preshredders, hammermills and sorting systems for the best result. Each system is designed to fit seamlessly, improving efficiency and simplifying maintenance.

Those solutions are engineered to handle a broad spectrum of metal waste and recyclable materials, with each system customized to the scrap type, input format, contamination level and desired recovery outcomes.
