M&J is part of A. Ahlström, a family-owned company with more than 170 years of industrial experience and a strong commitment to environmental technology. This heritage gives us a solid foundation of long-term vision, innovation, and sustainable growth.

Being part of the Ahlström network means we are backed by global resources and a shared mission to drive meaningful impact in the waste and recycling industry. It strengthens our ability to deliver reliable, high-quality shredding solutions that support both your business goals and broader environmental objectives.

When you choose M&J, you gain a stable, trusted partner focused on supporting your success today and in the future.

At M&J, environmental responsibility is at the heart of our mission. We’re committed to developing shredding solutions that reduce waste, conserve resources, and support a more sustainable future.

Our shredders play a key role in maximising material recovery and converting non-recyclable waste into valuable alternative fuels like RDF and SRF. This helps reduce landfill, lower CO₂ emissions, and replace fossil fuels in industries like cement and energy production.

We also focus on minimising energy use. Our electric eDrive technology is a prime example, helping customers significantly lower both operational costs and environmental impact. For example, the M&J P250e pre-shredder helped Terra cut energy consumption by 50%, while EHJ Energi A/S achieved 25–30% savings with the M&J F320e fine-shredder.

However, sustainability is about more than the machines we make – it’s also about how we make them. That’s why we’re continuously improving our production footprint. A recent investment in robotic welding has helped us reduce CO₂ emissions from manufacturing by up to 20%, while maintaining the durability and performance we’re known for.

So, when you choose M&J, you’re partnering with a company that puts environmental innovation first. Our shredders help you recover more, waste less, and run more efficiently, today and in the long run.

At M&J, we are known throughout the world for our hardwearing and reliable shredders – a reputation we strive to live up to every day. 

Therefore, we apply strict quality control to every component, whether it’s for a new shredder or a replacement part, to ensure consistent durability, efficiency, and uptime.

This dedication to quality gives you peace of mind, knowing that your investment is backed by reliable, long-lasting equipment designed to handle the toughest waste processing challenges.
