Urban Cleaning

Urban cleaning includes tasks like street sweeping and roadside cleaning, both requiring reliable and efficient equipment. Broekema’s belted chain technology is used in these operations. In street sweepers, our chains provide dependable and efficient transport of dirt and debris, minimizing wear and maintenance. For roadside cleaning, our robust chains handle rough terrain and heavy debris, ensuring thorough and consistent performance. Using Broekema’s technology, urban cleaning equipment benefits from reduced downtime, lower operational costs, and enhanced overall efficiency.

Waste Handling

In waste handling, Broekema’s belted chain technology enhances the efficiency and reliability of various equipment. For example, in waste paper collection trucks, our chains help minimize jams and breakdowns, ensuring smooth transportation of recyclable materials and reducing maintenance needs. Additionally, our technology is used in the incineration process on cruise ships, where the durable chains withstand harsh conditions for reliable and 24/7 waste disposal.

In addition to our products for beach cleanup, urban cleaning, and waste handling, Broekema also provides solutions for various other applications within the recycling and waste management industry. One of these includes sewer cleaning grates, which benefit from our durable belted chain technology to handle heavy loads and resist wear. Our custom solutions extend to a variety of other applications, offering reliable and efficient performance tailored to meet specific needs. Whether it’s for specialized waste handling or unique recycling processes, Broekema’s technology supports improved efficiency and reduced maintenance across the board.
