Hartl adds to Blue Group bow

Specialist crushing, screening and materials handling distributor Blue Group in the UK has been announced as distributors for the range of specialist screening and crushing excavator attachments produced by Austrian manufacturer Hartl. The former will be responsible for the sale of the latter’s ranges of hydraulically operated crushing and screening buckets, with a series of specialist options such as dust suppression, quick coupling and integral magnets for tramp metal extraction during processing. Central automatic lubrication is standard throughout the range. Another feature is the Hartl Crush Control that utilises CCTV technology to allow operators to fully monitor the crushing chamber or screening basket during working cycles, all from the comfort and safety of the cab.

Blue Group Managing Director Pat McGeary said: “To us, Hartl specialist buckets seem an obvious extra string to our bow. The clever design, build quality and performance of their buckets can only enhance our reputation for providing the best possible equipment available.”

He continued “We already have a high level of success with large static and mobile processing plants and materials handlers in the industries suited to Hartl products. We see this robust and productive range as a superb additional option for our many customers in quarrying, recycling and demolition as well as giving us an excellent opportunity to develop other markets where this type of equipment is ideal.”

Alexander Hartl, CEO of Hartl Engineering & Marketing GmbH, added: “We are delighted to have Blue Group joining as our distributor partner for the UK and are confident that this successful and progressive company will enjoy considerable success with our range of specialist crushing and screening buckets.”
