Vecoplan LLC introduces new line of shredding trucks

Archdale, North Carolina-based Vecoplan LLC, will launch its MST line of shredding trucks at the upcoming NAID (National Association for Information Destruction) Annual Conference & Expo, April 7-9, 2016, at the Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld in Orlando, Florida.

The new line expands Vecoplan’s family of shredding truck models and will be marketed in addition to the company’s VST series. The MST series shredding trucks feature general purpose shredders, according to the company, whereas the shredders in its VST series of shredding trucks are suitable for more sophisticated and high-security jobs. The MST series initially will be offered in two models: a 33,000 gross vehicle weight (GVW) CDL (commercial driver’s license) model, and a non-CDL 26,000 GVW model. The MST series will be available with various chassis-cab brands, Vecoplan notes.

The MST truck line is produced in partnership with Axo Shredders, with North American operations based in Philadelphia, and includes the “Powered by Axo” label. The MST series uses Axo’s Fatso 500-16 shredders, which Vecoplan describes as “a proven and technologically superior design when it comes to ‘pierce and tear’ shredders.” Vecoplan says it will adopt certain other design features from the Axo trucks; however, the MST line will be produced exclusively in Vecoplan’s North Carolina plant.

With this arrangement, Vecoplan says it essentially becomes Axo’s North American distribution partner, adding that “the new line offers all of the quality and performance you’ve come to expect from Vecoplan, but now combined with the best shear-shredder in the industry.”

Len Beusse, Vecoplan managing director and COO, says, “Not only does this development result in more options for our customers, but it [also] combines the best of truck and shredder design from two industry-leading companies. We are extremely excited.”
