Take a Turn for the Better
BACKHUS® self-propelled compost windrow turners do more than just turn compost, they homogenize and aerate windrows of any material type to build a pile structure that promotes hydration. This turning action creates the ideal environment for microbial growth through moisture distribution, which in turn reduces composting time and operating costs. That's a big deal.
BACKHUS compost turners deliver value to organics recyclers of any size or scale with models ranging from the compact self-propelled A30 to the impressive A75 — the largest compost turner available in the industry. Large commercial composters. Municipal compost sites. Farm-based manure composting.
BACKHUS compost turners allow you to produce more compost in less space with toe-to-toe window placement, and in less time with the action of the horizontal auger-style processing drum. Combined with many other innovative features that simplify operation and maintenance, BACKHUS turners are proven to be the world’s best turner and help your operation do more, better.
