special Beach cleaning Challenges

The right sand cleaning solution for your clean-up challenge.

Rapid aid in an emergency

Oil Spills

Oil-contaminated sand is hazardous and time-sensitive to clean. BeachTech cleaners gently skim only the contaminated top layer of sand, separating oil globs from sand with fine screens. This protects deeper sand layers and enables fast removal of toxic oil clumps – a crucial complement to manual cleanup in emergencies.

Beach hygiene

Seaweed & Natural Debris Removal

Rotting seaweed and algae piles deter tourists and harm beach hygiene. BeachTech machines have high capacity buckets to handle heavy, wet seaweed masses efficiently. They quickly remove seaweed, preventing odor and bacteria growth, and restoring the beach’s appeal.

Plastic Waste & Trash Cleanup

Plastic bottles, bags, and microplastics litter beaches, posing risks to wildlife and eyesores for visitors.

BeachTech’s sifters capture plastic pieces from large trash down to tiny pellets (nurdles). With wide 2.5 m screening widths and fast operation, one machine can clean what would otherwise require many volunteers.

Microplastics & Nurdles

Tiny plastic pellets (nurdles) and broken microplastic fragments are nearly impossible to hand-pick yet cause significant environmental harm.

BeachTech’s technology can recover up to 95% of microplastic nurdles mixed in sand. By sifting sand at fine mesh sizes, the machines prevent these plastics from remaining in the ecosystem.

Beach Tech Cleaning Technology

Many contaminants or potentially dangerous objects, such as splashes or broken glass, are found below the surface of the sand. 

BeachTech beach cleaning machines pick up the sand via the pick-up coulter and guide it over a rotating sieve belt or sieve plate. There the dirt is sieved out of the sand. Even the smallest pieces of dirt, such as cigarette filters, broken glass or crown caps, but also larger objects such as cans and packaging waste can be removed in this way. 
The waste is transported into the beach cleaner's collection container, while the cleaned sand falls back to the ground and is smoothed by the finisher - leaving behind a clean and inviting beach.
