Fires are among the central operational risks in recycling plants and substitute fuel production – in facilities, along the process chain, and in storage areas.
Fagus-GreCon shows at IFAT how these risks can be reduced with a systematically planned protection concept along the entire recycling process chain. GreCon PROTECTOR RECYCLING is designed for the typical requirements of the industry – from delivery to shredding, conveying, and processing, all the way to storage and stockpile areas.
In places where ignition sources arise directly in the process, preventive GreCon systems start early: they detect potential hazards in the material flow and initiate countermeasures before a fire develops. For applications such as stockpile monitoring, where classic spark extinguishing reaches its limits, complementary solutions are used – such as the GreCon SCOUT TI thermal camera in combination with suitable extinguishing technology.

Novelty: GreCon PROTECTOR CUBE

Suitable buildings, technical rooms, or infrastructural requirements are often missing for the classic installation of central fire protection technology. This is exactly where the new container solution comes in.
The PROTECTOR CUBE brings the fire protection system to where it is needed – pre-assembled, ready for connection, and designed for rapid on-site use. This reduces the effort for planning and integration and creates new flexibility - especially for existing plants, decentralized areas, or locations with limited space.
”Many recycling companies are aware of the risk of fires and are sometimes confronted with them daily. Fagus-GreCon has the full protection concept to consistently prevent risks in the process,” says Mario Haas, Managing Director of Fagus-GreCon. ”At IFAT, we show how next-generation fire protection can be sensibly implemented along the entire process chain. With the GreCon PROTECTOR CUBE, we are creating a solution for this that opens up new possibilities precisely where space, buildings, or infrastructure have previously set limits.”
