Terex Recycling Systems and ZenRobotics Working Hand-In-Hand

Terex Recycling Systems (TRS)—manufacturer of modular recycling products—and ZenRobotics—global leader in smart robotic recycling have expanded their sales team with several new appointments to represent all of Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Australasia. This team is trained to represent both TRS and ZenRobotics to offer customers a complete solution for turning waste into clean, raw materials.

Both businesses are part of Terex, a global manufacturer of aerial work platforms and materials processing machinery. Terex Recycling Systems was established in 2021 to specialise in the design and build of stationary and modular recycling systems, while ZenRobotics was acquired by Terex in 2022 to further enhance environmental expertise across its portfolio and contribute towards making a circular economy more possible.

“Working together, Terex Recycling Systems and ZenRobotics integrate cutting-edge AI technology into modular sorting solutions that are tailored specific to customer’s needs,” says Kenny Hull, Product & Commercial Manager of Terex Recycling Systems. “Our sales team is trained up on both businesses—this joint up approach means that their support and product knowledge can be spread across existing and new customers for both brands, expanding our ability to offer end-to-end recycling solutions.”
