Las Vegas - World of Concrete – February 2, 2010 – Multiquip, a diverse manufacturer and supplier of world class quality industrial products and solutions, will be displaying its EZ Grout Hog Crusher Job Site Material Recycler (Hog Crusher) at World of Concrete today.  

Multiquip's Hog Crusher is capable of pulverizing recyclable material in minutes, thus eliminating the need to have debris removed from construction job sites.  The product is capable of recycling materials such as brick, block, stone, rock, asphalt and non-reinforced concrete.  The Hog Crusher can reduce material down to two inches or smaller and can discharge up to ten tons per hour.

"The product saves contractors both time and money by eliminating the need to rent a dumpster and wait for someone to remove the debris at an additional cost," said Warren Faler, product manager, Multiquip. "Not only does the Hog Crusher provide an on-the-spot recycling center, but it is a much more affordable way to keep a job site cleaner, safer and environmentally friendly. 

The Hog Crusher is the only true on-site recycling center available today.  Compared to the costs of renting containers and disposing of waste, the Hog Crusher is relatively inexpensive. 

"In this economy, these types of savings are critical in determining the right products and partners for our customers," said Faler.

Featuring built-in forklift pockets, the Hog Crusher easily attaches to a skid steer loader or forklift.  The machine has a one-half yard capacity, a 24 inch crushing rotor and has heavy steel plate construction.  Additionally, the Hog Crusher uses replaceable carbide bits, a hardened breaker, as well as cleaner and cheek plates for easy on-site maintenance.
