"Not all interesting new products had to be large to be impressive. Seen for the first time in Europe, the Icelandic-designed, electrically activated Isbjorn binlifter system from Ecoprocess was, for me, the star of the show. This was because of the operational advantages such a unit could facilitate. A quiet binlifter sounds like a contradiction in terms, but without the need to power up a hydraulic system, the unit can work while the collection vehicle’s power unit remains at tickover. Even the design is people-friendly, with each fully enclosed lifter protected by a ‘soft’ shaped shroud. The side wings give added protection and create a natural barrier to prevent passers-by getting too close. If they do, the machine has a built-in safety stop device that halts the lift instantly. Production has started at a new plant in Nantes, France."
