The “Will It Grind” game, located at www.jungpumpen-us.com/will-it-grind, allows visitors to guess which materials will be successfully ground and which will be intentionally rejected by the Jung Pumpen brand of sewage grinder pumps. After registering their guess, visitors watch an entertaining video showing the actual results. According to Vertical Market Manager Mike Betker, “Jung Pumpen grinders feature a high-torque cutting system that macerates items that shouldn’t be flushed into a sewage system, but often are. These include gloves, pantyhose, diapers, etc.” “But what really sets Jung Pumpen grinders apart is that they are also engineered with an Intelligent Trash Reduction™ feature,” says Betker. “Items like small toys and golf balls are rejected by the pump to prevent damage to the cutting blades and motor.”
