Sustainability is more than just a catch-word for Lukas and Niklas Schäublin. The whole team acts according to this principle at the Terraluk Tiefbau GmbH, a family-owned company founded in 2000 with its headquarters in Laufen in the canton of Basel-Landschaft. Like RUBBLE MASTER, their top priorities are reducing the number of truck journeys, and thus minimising emissions and noise levels while saving fuel consumption. “Based on the increasing demand for environmentally friendly and sustainable recycling, we recently decided to become a complete solutions provider. The processing and recycling sectors perfectly complement our previous product range. The RM 120GO! was the perfect choice for us thanks to its enormous flexibility, quick and easy transport and set-up and high capacity,” says an enthusiastic Lukas Schäublin. The high performance direct drive diesel engine that also supplies power to electric motors on ancillary components was an additional argument in favour of the RM crusher.
Just a few months after expanding their business, the company received a number of orders in the processing and recycling sector. A flagship project with a recycling quota of 90 % is the processing of old concrete at the Zwingen paper mill in Basel.
The strict regulations imposed by the city of Basel in terms of environmental protection were easily undercut by Terraluk with the assistance of the RM 120GO!.
This was supported by an RM HS5000M coarse material screening plant and an RM MTS2010 stockpile belt with crawler gear. 60,000 m³ of material will be processed here over the next two years. When that has been completed, this previously industrial area will be converted into green living space close to the city, with some of the materials processed on site being reused for construction.
At Terraluk, sustainability is not just essential in terms of the environment. Socially sustainable towards employees and customers is also deeply routed in the company’s philosophy. “Honesty is very important to us. Our aim is to establish long term business relationships. We like to remain in close contact with our customers and are always available for our customers. This is another point that connects us with RUBBLE MASTER. Continuous dedication to delivering first-class quality and service is something that we experience every day from RUBBLE MASTER as well,” explains Niklas Schäublin.

Natural rock
Crushing at a high output and low wear, and that in every possible and impossible location, is not an issue for RM crushers. They manage to generate the highest quality value grain from natural stone on site. Depending on the desired combination of machinery. The end result is always cubic aggregate.
Abrasive rock
Quartz gravel, granite and riverbed gravel are not easy to process because high levels of quartz cause high wear. However, RM crushers are designed for such materials: thanks to their compact size they can achieve high throughputs even in tight spaces, producing valuable aggregate directly on site at all times.
Crushing gravel with 90% quartz content
Processing 24,000 tons of gravel with a quartz content of around 90 percent to produce 0-32 mm value grain
– that was the right challenge for the RM 100GO!. The mobile power pack with its wear-resistant hammers rose to this challenge in the Vienna basin extremely economically. Excavator and loader drivers are impressed.
Endurance in riverbed gravel
Building roads to connect to eastern Mexico was difficult because of the problematic terrain. It was necessary to prepare materials on site because of the remote locations of the construction sites. The RM 70GO! is ideal for challenges like this. Its manoeuvrability make it a perfect machine.
High demand for crushed sand and grit
The Swiss company Mühlebach AG has been successfully processing gravel for 40 years. As pioneers in this business field, they demand machines that are state of the art. They have now added an RM V550GO! to their fleet of machines in order to meet the demand for crushed sand and grit.
Impressive RM V550GO! performance in Argentina
At the beginning of the year the RM V550GO! made light work of transforming 0-200 mm river rock into fine 0-19 mm value grain. The awesome capacity and low diesel consumption were key in the Argentine company’s decision to purchase the RM V550GO!.
