Family-owned company Hector Van Moer and Sons selected Omtrack, a Keestrack Group company, when looking for a solution to recycle construction and demolition waste. “In our C&D waste there are often big pieces of steel which will lead to a lot of downtime when using a percussion crusher. That is why we prefer a jaw crusher,” said owner Dirk Van Moer.
