Kleemann plant in an Indigenous community in Canada

The Garden River First Nation in Ontario is using state-of-the-art Kleemann plant to produce high-quality aggregates for the rehabilitation of Highway 17A. The revenue generated from these operations flows directly back to the First Nation, creating jobs, housing and new perspectives for the future. In this way, advanced plant technology has become a driving force for growth, self-determination and a vibrant community life.

A wealth of recycling expertise

Mixed material, asphalt or demolition material: Different material properties, fluctuating levels of foreign material and high standards of quality and efficiency require not only high-performance machinery but, above all, in-depth knowledge of the application. It was precisely this knowledge that took centre stage at the recycling workshop at Kleemann, where, over 2.5 days, colleagues from all over the world gained new insights and were able to engage in in-depth discussions.
