“SIB manufactures the industry’s finest cassette brush system, and Oshkosh is proud to offer it to customers in North America,” said Jeff Resch, Oshkosh Airport Products Group vice president and general manager. “A core Oshkosh mission is to help customers clear snow, ice and other debris from airport runways as quickly and efficiently as possible. This agreement enhances the value we bring to our customers which manage airport runway clearing operations.”
“We have developed a mutually beneficial working relationship with Oshkosh Airport Products, and this long-term extension of our 2012 agreement is an excellent move forward for both companies,” said Cecil Dahlberg, SIB CEO. “The SIB cassette brush system, matched with the Oshkosh XF broom and other brooming equipment, represents the state-of-the-art in performance and productivity.”
The SIB cassette brush system minimizes bristle-changing time and labor costs. It features easier operation, minimal vibration, and less snow packed in the bristles compared to traditional wafer brush systems. It sports a patented core construction in diameters of 36 inches or 46 inches and lengths up to 21 feet (6.5 meters). In addition, the SIB system requires fewer spare parts and is easier to maintain.
About SIB
A family owned Swedish company, Svenska Industriborstar i Västerås AB (SIB) was founded in 1955 and for its first 25 years concentrated exclusively on industrial brush solutions and applications. In the late 1970s, the company introduced the SIB cassette brush system, consisting of a rotating core and an arrangement of special cassette brushes for keeping airport runways free of ice, snow, rubber and FOD (Foreign Object Debris). The SIB system remains unique in terms of its performance, quality, efficiency, and environmental friendliness. For more information, visit www.sib.brushes.se.
