Harris Waste Management Group Inc., Peachtree City, Ga., a division of FKI plc, has received orders for two additional balers in the former Soviet Union. Under the agreement, Harris will install a TCS-416-L baler to aid in the destruction of military aircraft and missile components.

Newell Industries Inc., San Antonio, Texas, has made several recent equipment installations. The company sold a Newell 120104 Megashredder to Ferrous Processing and Trading, Detroit, for installation in a new FPT facility being developed in East Detroit. This is the sixth shredding plant FTP has purchased from Newell Industries.

In addition, Newell Industries sold and successfully installed one of its newest shredders, the Super Heavy Duty Model 6080 SHD, to Giuliani Brothers, Riazzino-Locarno, Switzerland.

"The Giulianis have cultivated relationships in that area and have secured authorization from the Locarno County Authority for their facility to process scrap from the entire Swiss population," says Alton Scott Newell III, executive vice president of Newell. "They also send material to areas in northern Italy and are estimating they will be processing about 25,000 tons of scrap through their facility per year – great numbers for a fairly low-population region."
