Casier Recycling is benefiting from operational advantages after acquiring its first CASE wheel loader CASE Construction Equipment’s G-Series wheel loaders are suitable for a wide range of applications, many highly specialised, and the work of Casier Recycling is a good example At a 90,000 square-metre facility in Deerlijk sorts and processes 12,000 tons of scrap ferrous metals This is a big operation in which a CASE 721G wheel loader plays an essential role - and Casier is finding that the machine has useful advantages over the wheel loaders it previously bought from other manufacturers The wheel loader’s work at Casier is demanding and continuous so the machine has to be high in reliability and low in maintenance requirements Because of the long operating hours it is also important for the wheel loader to have a comfortable cab and easy controls And because the wheel loader moves around a site busy with other machinery and people its cab must afford excellent outwards visibility These were the main considerations when Casier purchased a new wheel loader in 2017 but the company also wanted its new machine to be more compact and manoeuvrable than its wheel loaders from other brands Casier Recycling’s Technical Director, Koen Debaere, explains: “We had heard from colleagues at another waste recycling company that CASE wheel loaders are good for cab comfort and out-of-cab visibility was one of the benefits CASE talked about when launching the new G-Series range But we also had to be sure that the G-Series is tough - in our business it has to be capable of working very hard for many hours without any problems.” Looking for a machine that could meet these requirements 10 kilometres north of the city of Kortrijk Delvano sells and supports the full line of CASE construction equipment in the provinces of South West Flanders and South East Flanders Mr Debaere remembers: “We informed Delvano that we particularly wanted to look at some used - very used - examples of the old F-Series wheel loaders to see how they hold-up after years of tough work After that we sat in the cab of the new G-Series to check out the comfort features and the outwards visibility - and decided this was the machine for us We have been very satisfied with our purchase.” All seven models in the latest-generation G-Series range deliver new levels of operator comfort to help maximise productivity Visibility is enhanced by a full-width panoramic windscreen and a slim engine cover; ease of operation by an operator control interface with an eight-inch display which is easy to use in all external light conditions; and comfort by a fully-adjustable seat-mounted console The new G-Series is also designed to provide unprecedented levels of fuel efficiency - a fact that Casier Recycling will happily confirm as the company’s 721G is consuming about 10 percent less diesel than its previous wheel loaders The G-Series’s FPT Industrial diesel engines feature Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) engine technology which keeps exhaust temperatures lower and improves fuel efficiency as well as eradicating the need for a diesel particulate filter (DPF) or exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) CASE also offers buyers the peace of mind of CASE ProTech This suite of product assurances includes extended warranty and a maintenance contract enabling G-Series owners to accurately forecast total operating costs The recycling of heavy metals and wood is just one type of work in which CASE G-Series wheel loaders are exceptionally productive The seven G-Series models - from the 521G with a 3.9t bucket payload to the 1121G with a 10.2t bucket payload - are scaled for all kinds of work All over the world the G-Series can be found working hard for supply yards It is this robust versatility which explains the G-Series’ popularity Advertise With UsFacebookTwitter With market-leading print and digital platforms for the Recycling and Bulk Material Handling Industries we provide a comprehensive and virtually unique route to market.Our bi-monthly magazine is available in print or electronic mediums delivering the latest news on new product launches and industry projects directly to individually addressed on-site locations throughout the UK & Northern Ireland Such is the demand we enjoy a regular pass-on readership of 2.5 providing a total of in excess of 15,000 regular readers of the magazine We work closely with companies to provide on-site editorials focusing on their clients feedback All wrapped up with on-site recorded interviews delivering dynamic stories and images that enhance the stories We also attend open days & events and promote these by writing engaging editorial pieces published in our magazine Let HUB-4 distribute magazines at your open day and we'll promote your event for you in the news and events section of our website prior to the event Our bi-monthly magazine is sent directly to 6,000+ quarries with a pass-on rate of 2.5 giving an estimated readership of 15,000 throughout the UK © 2025 HUB Digital Media Ltd |Registered at Companies House Privacy Policy | Cookie Policy 19-year-old Romanie Schotte from Bruges has been elected Miss Belgium 2017 20-year-old Delphine Devos from Deerlijk came second with 18-year-old Eva Mira from Saint-Nicolas (near Liège) taking third place Romanie Schotte is taking on commercial studies (management for small and middle-sized companies) The evening gala in the Plopsa Theatre in Adinkerke (De Panne) was a West Flemish success Schotte will put her studies on hold for a year "It's gonna be a very busy 12 months Frans travelled to Cambodia to work as a volunteer "I also want to be engaged in this kind of thing" (picture below: the top-3 with (left to right) Delphine Devos It's over for Miss Europe Lenty Frans Wallonia didn't have anybody in the top-5 but now Mira made it onto the final podium Schotte received her crown from the previous Miss Belgium Frans herself was also honoured for taking 6th place in the Miss World contest There were also titles for Ellen Caen from Bruges (Miss Sports) Ellen Bacquaert from Oostkamp (Miss Talent) Charlotte Rau from Oostkamp (Miss Sympathy) and Leentje Jorissen from Sint-Truiden (Miss Model) the Muslim candidate from Molenbeek and the present Miss Brussels
