Jaw crushing
We are the UK’s specialist national contractor for earthmoving, crushing and recycling, and sea and coastal defence works.
High reduction ratios of output material
Jaw crushing forms the primary stage of many of our material processing operations. Designed to accept large feed sizes and heavily reinforced demolition arisings, tracked mobile jaw crushers provide the first reduction phase in a controlled, engineered crushing circuit.
At OEC, jaw crushing is delivered to sustain, protect and enhance every project. We sustain resources by recovering usable aggregates from concrete, brick, asphalt and primary stone. We protect operational environments through disciplined feed control, dust suppression and compliant waste handling. We enhance programme performance by producing consistent, specification-ready material at source.
Our tracked mobile primary jaw crushers are deployed nationwide across infrastructure schemes, remediation sites, landfill engineering and commercial developments. Configured to suit feedstock characteristics and required throughput, they deliver high reduction ratios while maintaining structural integrity of the output material.
Integrated magnetic separation systems remove embedded steel from demolition waste, protecting downstream plant and ensuring clean aggregate production. Material is then transferred to secondary crushing or screening operations depending on project requirements.
Jaw crushing is particularly effective for:
- Initial reduction of reinforced concrete
- Processing large stone or excavation arisings
- Producing sub-base and capping material
- Preparing feedstock for cone or impact crushing
Operating in complex and regulated environments demands precision. OEC integrates plant positioning, stockpile management and haulage logistics into the wider earthworks package, maintaining safe working distances and efficient material flow.
All loading shovels are equipped with on-board weigh loaders and printers, ensuring accurate material measurement and transparent reporting. Excavators operate with pulverisers, hydraulic breakers and magnets, enabling efficient material segregation and preparation prior to processing.
Whether deployed as a standalone contract crushing service or as part of a fully integrated earthmoving programme, our jaw crushing capability provides robust primary reduction, controlled output and disciplined site execution.

OEC integrates jaw crushing directly into the earthworks and demolition programme, coordinating plant positioning, material handling and haulage logistics to maintain safe, efficient workflow. This allows processed material to be reused on site where possible, supporting material efficiency, reducing waste export and improving overall programme performance.
Ovenden Earthmoving Co Ltd (OEC) provides nationwide mobile jaw crushing services for infrastructure schemes, demolition projects, remediation sites, landfill engineering and commercial developments. We process demolition arisings and primary materials into specification-ready aggregates on site.
OEC’s jaw crushers can process reinforced concrete, demolition waste, natural stone and bulk excavation arisings. Integrated magnetic separation systems remove embedded steel, ensuring clean, reusable aggregate suitable for sub-base, capping and further crushing stages.
