As we wrap up 2025, we look back on a year defined by innovation, collaboration, and solutions that helped customers around the world work smarter and more efficiently. Throughout the year, ALLU continued to strengthen its position in material processing by showcasing technologies that make a difference on real job sites — from asphalt recycling to equipment monitoring.

Advancing Asphalt Processing with ALLU

One of this year’s highlights was the growing interest in the ALLU Asphalt Screening Bucket, designed for efficient handling of cold-milled and reclaimed asphalt (RAP). Its hybrid screening system enables faster, cleaner, and more cost-effective on-site processing, helping contractors produce high-quality reusable material while reducing transportation needs. This development aligns with the industry’s increasing focus on sustainable infrastructure.

Smarter Productivity Through Innovative Designs & Solutions

The introduction of TSR Blades (Top Screen Rapid) marked a major step forward in maintenance efficiency: their two-piece structure enables blade replacement directly on the shaft, eliminating the need to remove drums or open the chain box. This streamlined approach cuts maintenance time dramatically — saving nearly two hours per drum compared to traditional TS blades.

At the same time, the expanded offering of Skid Steer & CTL adapters opened new possibilities for compact machinery. By improving handling and enhancing safety when working with larger attachments, these adapters enable screening buckets to perform more efficiently in a wider range of applications. With greater stability and easier accessibility, smaller machines can now accomplish more than ever before.

The ALLU Tracker enhances fleet visibility and management with its smart design. Its compact, IP69k build, magnetic mounting, and long-lasting battery ensure reliable performance in even the toughest environments. By providing accurate running-hour data, GPS location, and global connectivity through LTE with 2G fallback, the Tracker keeps your equipment visible, protected, and easy to manage via the ALLU Data Portal — supporting better planning, improved safety, and more efficient operations.

From Bauma to Conexpo – Connecting With the Industry

The year 2025 also brought valuable opportunities to meet customers and partners at Bauma in Germany, where ALLU showcased its solutions and exchanged insights with industry professionals. Building on that momentum, we now look ahead to CONEXPO 2026 in Las Vegas, USA, where we will continue sharing innovations and strengthening connections across the global construction sector.

Entering a Milestone Year: ALLU – 40 Years of Excellence

As we approach 2026, ALLU proudly celebrates its 40th anniversary, marking four decades of innovation, quality, and dedication to supporting our customers and dealers worldwide. ALLU has grown from a Finnish environmental-technology pioneer into a globally recognized company in the industry, delivering durable and efficient solutions that support a wide range of applications across the construction and recycling industries. The journey has been defined by continuous development and strong partnerships.

Before entering this milestone year, we want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We look forward to continuing our work together — always One Step Ahead.

Skid steers and compact track loaders (CTLs) are among the most adaptable machines on any jobsite. Their small footprint, agility and powerful hydraulic systems make them ideal carriers for a wide range of attachments, especially ALLU Screening Buckets. When paired with an ALLU Bucket, these compact loaders transform into efficient mobile processing units capable of screening, separating, crushing, and mixing materials directly on-site.

“This makes them an invaluable solution for urban spaces, landscaping, utility projects and confined spaces where efficiency and maneuverability matter most.” – Antti Rautamies, R&D Project Manager, ALLU Finland Oy

Choosing the Right ALLU Bucket for Your Skid Steer or CTL

ALLU’s lightweight DL-Series and compact DC-Series are compatible with skid steers and CTLs weighing from 2 to 8 tons. These buckets maintain machine stability and handling while providing excellent output.

Selecting the right model depends on carrier size, hydraulic flow, material type, and desired particle size. Adjustable ALLU TS blade configurations allow operators to tailor results for applications ranging from topsoil and compost to aggregate and cold-milled asphalt.

A specifically designed line of adapters for maximum safety and optimal fit

Using oversized attachments on skid steers or CTLs can lead to tipping, reduced stability and difficult cab access. To prevent this, ALLU has designed a line of adapters specifically for compact loaders. These adapters ensure a perfect fit, safe operation and fast attachment changes — no machine modifications required. They enhance workability, accessibility, and overall balance when screening soil, compost, asphalt, trench backfill, or recyclable waste materials.

ALLU, a global leader in screening and crushing bucket attachments, presents an innovative solution for the recycling sector: the ALLU Asphalt Screening Bucket – a powerful, hybrid screening system specifically engineered to process cold-milled and reclaimed asphalt (RAP) faster, cleaner, and more cost-effectively than before.

“Globally, there’s a clear shift toward sustainable infrastructure in construction business. Asphalt recycling plays a major role in this movement, and our new ALLU Asphalt Bucket empowers contractors to turn reclaimed and cold-milled asphalt into high-quality, reusable material—directly on site. It’s a smarter, more profitable way to work, and we’re proud to help drive this transformation across the industry.”
— Peter Grönholm, CEO, ALLU Finland Oy

Efficiency Meets Profitability

The Asphalt Bucket utilizes a hybrid blade configuration – a mix of screening and crushing blades – to fine-tune performance and achieve consistently high-quality end products. This combination allows operators to process cold-milled asphalt directly at the source without additional crushing equipment.

“The hybrid blade setup is what makes this bucket so effective — it delivers just the right mix of crushing force and fine screening to process asphalt efficiently in a single step,” says Peter Grönholm.

With nominal screen sizes of 12, 16, and 25 mm, the bucket can produce over 95% of finished material below target size, drastically reducing reprocessing needs.

Key features include:

• One-Step Operation: Crushes and screens simultaneously, eliminating the need for separate pre-crushing or secondary equipment.
• Lower Total Costs: Reduces reliance on mobile impact crushers, cutting fuel consumption, wear part expenses, and overall ton-per-cost rates.
• Proven Throughput: Models deliver up to 250 tons per hour, with rapid drum change-outs thanks to the Variable Drum technology.

Designed for Today’s Job Sites

The ALLU Asphalt is available in several sizes for 25–45 ton excavators and 15–30 ton wheel loaders. Its robust design includes a serrated cutting edge and reinforced frame, tailored for aggressive asphalt processing.

Whether it’s pre-crushed demolition asphalt or compacted cold-milled material, the ALLU solution is engineered for reliability, mobility, and productivity – even in tight or urban work sites.
