Fletcher Building orders Hotdisk Combustion device from FLSmidth

New Zealand: Fletcher Building has ordered a Hotdisk Combustion device from Denmark’s FLSmidth for installation at its Golden Bay Cement plant in Portland. Once the Hotdisk is operational the plant’s kiln will consume up to 3.1 million shredded tyres per year. Carsten Damslund Jensen, Global Product Line Manager at FLSmidth, said that the company is forecasting the sale of 10 Hotdisk units in 2019. Demand around the world, and especially in China, is driving the growth.
