A successful month on the trade fair circuit

September 2025 was an intense and successful month of trade fairs for ZOELLER. With three appearances – at KOMMUNAL Live in Fulda, the municipal trade fair in Selm and the NUFAM in Karlsruhe – ZOELLER once again showcased its innovative strength, customer focus, and strong market presence. 

KOMMUNAL LIVE in Fulda

As a key platform for decision-makers in municipal waste management, KOMMUNAL Live has long been a staple in ZOELLER’s annual calendar. This September, Fulda once again became the stage for innovations that quite literally made the future tangible: the MEDIUM X4 Electric Power Move (EPM) with the DELTA 2322 premium lifter on a Mercedes-Benz eEconic 300L featuring a high-voltage interface from HYDAC, and the agile Micro XL with its powerful OMEGA 359 lifter on a Mitsubishi FUSO eCanter—both drew strong attention and sparked lively discussions.

The real highlight, however, was the Z-Cam, which gave live demonstrations of how AI reacts in real time at the rear of the vehicle to ensure safety. At the ZOELLER booth, it was clear how e-mobility, advanced body technology, and digital safety seamlessly come together—practical, tangible, and designed for everyday operations.

11th Waste Management Logistics & Municipal Technology Day in Selm

The atmosphere at the 11th Waste Management Logistics & Municipal Technology Day in Selm was relaxed and familiar—almost like a friendly reunion of industry professionals. Still, technology clearly took center stage: ZOELLER showcased the MAGNUM X1 on an Econic chassis, perfectly designed to meet the demands of bulky waste collection.

Many visitors seized the chance to take a close look at this powerful solution and engage directly with ZOELLER experts. They were particularly impressed by the combination of rugged construction and thoughtful ergonomics, ensuring both efficiency and safety in everyday operations.

NUFAM in Karlsruhe

Things got even bigger at NUFAM in Karlsruhe, where ZOELLER delivered a true showcase of innovation — a fireworks display of vehicles and technology that drew crowds throughout the event.

From the compact MEDIUM X4 with Electric Power Move (EPM), laser scanner extension wall, and LED ambient lighting, to the DELTA 2322 Premium lifter mounted on a fully electric Mercedes-Benz eEconic with HYDAC high-voltage interface, the lineup was both diverse and forward-looking. Adding to the buzz were the smart all-rounders of the Micro series: the Micro XL with OMEGA lifter on a Mitsubishi FUSO eCanter, and the Micro HG with SL240 lifter on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 515 CDI—compact, agile, and built for the future of urban waste collection.

Of course, the Z-Cam was also in action, giving live demonstrations directly on the vehicle and showing how AI ensures safety and precision in real time.

The result was a trade fair appearance that perfectly combined high-tech innovation with everyday practicality—and made one thing clear: ZOELLER is already delivering the answers to tomorrow’s challenges today.

“September clearly showed how valuable these platforms are for us”, said Jürgen Kowalke Head of Sales & Service Deutschland at Zöller-Kipper GmbH. “The conversations at all three events confirmed that our customers truly value the combination of technical expertise, service orientation, and personal interaction. The live demonstrations of the Z-Cam were a real highlight—showcasing not only how far we’ve advanced in digital areas like AI, but also the added safety benefits our technology brings.”

Across the waste management industry, interest in innovative, practical solutions continues to grow. For ZOELLER, the focus goes beyond vehicle performance—it’s about strong partnerships with municipalities and waste management companies, as well as smart technologies and intelligent systems that make everyday operations safer and more efficient.

ZOELLER remains fully committed to this path—and the next milestones are already in sight: IFAT 2026 in Munich, coming up in May 2026, where the company will once again showcase the future of waste management technology.
