The design will focus on three primary criteria, according to Tigner: structural integrity for longevity, ease of maintenance and efficient production cost. He adds that the shredder line will be competitively priced.
The design is expected to be finalized in February of 2007, with production of the shredder line beginning shortly thereafter, according to a press release from the company.
US Shredder and Castings Group was formed in June 2006 by a number of industry veterans and suppliers. The company currently builds shredder system components, with the exception of the shredder box itself.
