EDGE Innovate names Kosmotech as distributor for Italy and Switzerland

EDGE Innovate, the Dungannon-based manufacturer of shredding, screening and stacking equipment, has appointed Florence-based Kosmotech srl as its official distribution partner for Italy and Switzerland, announcing the deal at the ECOMONDO exhibition.

Under the agreement, Kosmotech will offer the entire EDGE product line-up to customers in both countries, EDGE Innovate said.

Steven Conway, Territory Distribution Manager at EDGE Innovate, said: "Announcing this partnership at ECOMONDO, in front of the Italian industry, shows how seriously we take this market."

He said the company's ambition was to make EDGE Innovate a leading name in shredding, screening and stockpiling across Italy and Switzerland.

The distributor

Kosmotech specialises in equipment for waste treatment, according to EDGE Innovate, supplying shredding, screening and turning solutions to operators in Italy's waste, recycling and organics sectors.

Andrea Manetti, CEO of Kosmotech srl, said: "We see this as a long-term relationship. Our ambition is to grow the EDGE fleet throughout Italy and Switzerland."

Manetti said EDGE machines were built for tough, high-volume applications and were productive, reliable and simple to operate.

The range and support

The range Kosmotech will supply includes slow-speed waste shredders, trommels, tracked stackers, mobile stockpilers, tracked and mobile feeders, picking stations, material classifiers, roll-sizers and truck off-loaders, EDGE Innovate said.

The distributor will be supported directly by EDGE Innovate's team in Dungannon, with access to application engineering, operator training and genuine EDGE spare parts.

The manufacturer

EDGE Innovate describes itself as a manufacturer based in Dungannon, Co. Tyrone, Northern Ireland, making shredding, screening, stacking and sorting equipment for recycling, waste processing and material handling.

Companies House lists the company's registered office as 30 Farlough Road, Dungannon, County Tyrone, BT71 4DT, and classifies it under SIC code 28220, manufacture of lifting and handling equipment.

ECOMONDO's organiser, Italian Exhibition Group, describes the show as the international meeting point for those working on the transformation of the green and circular economy.
