Hard Recycle Announces Partnership with Zemmler Siebanlagen GmbH for the Australian and New Zealand Markets

Hard Recycle is proud to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding/Letter of Intent (MOU/LOI) with Zemmler Siebanlagen GmbH (Zemmler), a renowned German manufacturer of advanced screening solutions. This partnership marks a significant milestone in our ongoing mission to provide best-in-class recycling, industrial air filtration, and material handling technologies to clients across Australia and New Zealand. By joining forces with Zemmler, Hard Recycle further expands its offering of high-quality engineered products—especially for mobile or fixed applications—in the recycling, manufacturing, energy, and mining sectors.

Founded on a shared commitment to innovation and sustainability, Hard Recycle and Zemmler are now positioned to offer a wider array of products and services that streamline waste management, reduce environmental impact, and improve operational efficiency. Zemmler’s reputation for manufacturing robust and versatile screening machinery complements Hard Recycle’s established portfolio of recycling equipment, air filtration systems, and material handling solutions. For clients in Australia and New Zealand, this partnership delivers tangible benefits, including easier access to top-tier screening technology, localized support, and expert consultation tailored to the unique conditions of each project.

Why Zemmler?

Zemmler has earned global recognition for its double-drum and triple-drum trommel screens, which excel in separating a variety of materials with remarkable precision. From soil and compost to construction and demolition waste, Zemmler machines handle a wide range of applications. This versatility is particularly valuable for operations that process multiple waste streams or materials. Zemmler’s design approach focuses on maximizing throughput while minimizing downtime, maintenance, and operational costs—a philosophy that aligns closely with Hard Recycle’s goal of delivering practical, high-performance solutions to its clients.

The Zemmler product line features models that can be deployed quickly on-site, whether in mobile or stationary configurations. Their trommel screens are designed for durability, offering extended service life under demanding operating conditions. In addition, Zemmler’s commitment to ongoing research and development ensures that each new generation of equipment incorporates the latest technological advances, positioning them at the forefront of screening innovation. By bringing these solutions to Australia and New Zealand, Hard Recycle helps local industries remain competitive in a fast-evolving global market.

Synergies and Benefits for Clients

For Hard Recycle’s clients, this new partnership unlocks a host of synergies and benefits. First, integrating Zemmler’s advanced screening equipment into our existing portfolio enables us to offer end-to-end solutions—from shredding, washing, and drying to screening and separation—under one roof. This one-stop-shop approach reduces the complexity of coordinating multiple vendors and ensures cohesive project management, shorter lead times, and more efficient installation processes.

Second, Hard Recycle’s established presence in both Australia and New Zealand allows us to deliver on-the-ground support for Zemmler products. Clients can expect timely maintenance, spare parts availability, and technical guidance throughout the life cycle of their screening equipment. By combining Zemmler’s engineering excellence with Hard Recycle’s local expertise and service network, customers gain a reliable partner invested in their success.

Third, the collaboration fosters continued innovation and customization. Every recycling or material handling project comes with its own set of challenges—such as space constraints, specific throughput requirements, or unique material properties. Drawing on Zemmler’s engineering capabilities and Hard Recycle’s deep knowledge of the local market, we can develop tailored solutions that align with each client’s operational goals and regulatory requirements. This commitment to customization ensures that equipment not only performs at peak efficiency but also integrates seamlessly into existing processes.

Together, we can now offer an even broader range of solutions that address the most pressing operational challenges faced by recycling facilities, manufacturing plants, construction, infrastructure and energy and mining operations across Australia and New Zealand.

“Beyond the technical advantages of Zemmler’s equipment, what excites us most is our shared vision for innovation and sustainability. Our aim is to help businesses minimize their environmental impact while maximizing productivity. Zemmler’s cutting-edge screens fit seamlessly into that vision, helping our customers process materials more efficiently, reduce waste, and create value from what might otherwise end up in landfills.
