A Business Built on Reclaimed Materials.
In the heart of Austria’s Innviertel region, Josef Hamminger has turned reclaimed building materials into a thriving business. Every year, he demolishes around 200 old farm buildings, carefully salvaging valuable wood and processing construction and demolition (C&D) waste. To gain greater control over his projects, he invested in the RM 70GO! 2.0 mobile crusher—an addition that has transformed his workflow and profitability.
More Flexibility and Control with an In-House Crusher
Before acquiring his own RM 70GO! 2.0, Hamminger relied on rental crushers and excavator-mounted crushing jaws. However, this approach had drawbacks, particularly when scheduling conflicts arose. “My customers expect a complete service—demolition and recycling in one. Before, I had to depend on other companies, and delays were common. Now, with my own crusher, I can work on my own schedule and keep my promises,” he says.
Compact & Powerful
Weighing just under 20 tonnes, the RM 70GO! 2.0 is lightweight and maneuverable, making it ideal for small job sites and sensitive terrain.
Easy Move
Unlike bulkier rental units, this compact crusher can be easily transported to remote locations. “Whether in the city or up in the mountains, it’s ready for action quickly and delivers impressive throughput,” Hamminger notes.
Significant Cost Savings
Hamminger previously spent up to €60,000 annually on rental crushers. “We used to rent for 350 to 400 hours per year. Now, we crush even more, and the cost savings are substantial,” he adds.
Growing a mobile C&D business fast requires you to start with the right machine.
Small jaw crushers, compact impact crushers, and slow-speed shredders can process C&D waste but if you start with the wrong machine, or let the initial investment cost dictate the selection, you…
- waste time & money getting out of a wrong decision.
- struggle build a market for your products and services.
- struggle to increase your capacities seamlessly.
- hold back your growth from the start!
The Man Behind the Business
Founded in 1995 in Gurten, Austria, Hamminger’s company has grown from a building materials firm into a leader in reclaimed materials and recycling. Today, he manages seven businesses, employs around 30 people, and sells reclaimed wood across Europe. With the RM 70GO! 2.0, he has not only enhanced his operations but also secured a future of efficiency and sustainability.
