The importance of the municipality acquiring a branch chipper

GREEN MANAGEMENT10 de July de 2026

The city of Leste in Paraná has been equipped with a new chipper for branches, trunks, and shrubs to reduce the volume of green waste. This is an important step for the efficient management of urban waste, applied under the municipality's Selective Collection Program.

The Importance of Proper Disposal of Urban Pruning Waste

The proper disposal of urban pruning waste is essential for public health and environmental preservation. With the new branch chipper, the city will be able to transform this waste into useful material, reducing the volume that goes to landfills. This not only minimizes environmental impacts but also promotes a cleaner and more pleasant city for all citizens.

BRANCH CHIPPER / LOG CRUSHER – PDU260D

The Urban Disk Chipper PDU 260D, powered by a diesel engine, is designed to facilitate the handling of tree waste. With a wide hopper and feed opening, it can shred bulky materials thanks to its “no-stress” self-feeding system that ensures smooth and constant operation even with tougher materials. Equipped with sharp double-sided knives, a large diameter traction roller, and a clutch system, the PDU 260D also features a four-position safety bar and an independent hydraulic system, ensuring its autonomy as a mobile unit.

Benefits of Branch Shredding

This equipment is ideal for cleaning urban roads, green areas, and disposal sites, contributing to the recycling of prunings, branches, and round wood. The shredded material can be used for fertilization, composting, and landscaping, achieving up to an 80% reduction in the volume of accumulated waste.With actions like this, municipalities not only enhance urban aesthetics but also promote sustainable practices that benefit the entire community. Responsible waste management is a commitment to the future of the city and the quality of life for its residents.Contact us and discover the Urban Management solutions that Lippel has to offer!
