Where is this IBC Tumble Blender going?

Luckily not to the scrapyard - Foeth ensures quality machines live on!

Instead of ending up on a scrapyard, this pre-owned tumble blender is on to the next step in it's lifecycle! The purchasing team at Foeth is always on the lookout for great machines that have unfortunately become redundant in their current production process. They were able to acquire a beautiful IBC tumble blender and save it from standing idle, or worse, ending up as scrap.

This tumble blender was previously used in the processing of sports nutrition, a job it performed astonishingly well up until the former owner decided to reduce their production. What makes this machine so effective is its ease of use. There is no need to clean the machine, because it blends the product directly from within the IBC. When it finishes a batch, a new IBC can be immediately loaded, minimizing downtime. Speaking of IBCs: the blender came with 16 of them, so plenty of batches can be prepared. Watch the blender leave the Foeth premises and notice the entire second truck needed just for the IBCs!

We are glad the previous owner saw the value in selling this beautiful machine instead of letting it sit idle. Now the new owner, who is also active in the food and feed industry, is able to take full advantage of the benefits that pre-owned equipment offers. After testing and cleaning by Foeth's in-house team of expert technicians, the machine looks and performs as if it was brand new. Combine this with the reduced price of used equipment and the immediate availability and it's easy to see why many companies choose for pre-owned. As for us, we are just happy to save pristine machines and contribute to a more sustainable economy by avoiding the CO2 emissions from the production of a new machine!

The Tumble Blender was initially bought by purchaser Rob Sand, after getting in touch with a manufacturer that was looking to sell idle equipment. If you have idle equipment, Rob's advice is to contact him as soon as possible! He will inspect the equipment and make you a fair offer. If you are on the other side and looking for machines to increase your production instead, contact Michel from Sales, he's happy to inform you about our pre-owned machines and arrange the sale and shipment!
