Sunarth Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minami-Ota, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President: Hiromi Nakagawa, hereinafter referred to as "Our Company") is pleased to announce that we will be holding the "Sunarth Fest (Advanced Sorting Exhibition & Telehandler Test Drive Event)" on Friday, May 22, 2026, at the Sunarth Sorting Lab (SSL) in Futtu City, Chiba Prefecture.
This will be the second time we host this event. Despite it being the first year after the opening of SSL last year, we welcomed many customers. This year again, you can closely observe our test center, SSL, which realizes the "4S Concept" – the four key processes for advanced sorting – through demonstrations. Additionally, we have prepared telehandlers from French manufacturer MANITOU, which we started handling last year, and you will be able to test drive them.
Sunarth Fest is being held in conjunction with the NEW Environment Exhibition, taking place from May 20 (Wed) to May 22 (Fri) at Tokyo Big Sight. We will also be exhibiting there, but at Sunarth Fest, you can view a multitude of machines that cannot be shown at the exhibition venue, all in a state closer to actual site conditions, and all at the same time.
We will also provide a shuttle bus from Shinagawa.
Furthermore, a representative from Germany's STEINERT, the manufacturer of our KSS combination sorter equipped with a through X-ray sensor installed at SSL, will be visiting Japan. You will be able to ask questions about overseas cases during the event.
The telehandler, for which test drives will be conducted, is a piece of construction machinery that is gaining attention in many industries, including construction, port operations, forestry, and waste processing. It is widely adopted as essential machinery in fields across Europe and Australia. By attaching various attachments to the tip of the telescopic boom, it can handle a wide range of applications with a single unit, such as transporting, lifting, and working at heights.
We have prepared the compact telehandler MT625 and the medium-sized telehandler MT930.

Introduction to Sunarth Sorting Lab (SSL)
Sunarth Sorting Lab (SSL) is a demonstration and testing facility for sorting machines used in the selection of metal scrap, ASR (Automotive Shredder Residue), industrial waste, and incineration ash. We offer a variety of high-performance sorting machines from excellent European sorting machine manufacturers, primarily from Germany. The facility realizes Sunarth's recommended 4S Concept.
[What is the Sunarth 4S Concept?]
Stream Management: Ensure a stable flow rate to the line, contributing to the stable operation of downstream equipment.
Screening: Sort by appropriate particle size to maximize the performance of downstream equipment.
Segregation: Perform judgments such as light/heavy, magnetic, 2D/3D, and sort by material properties to improve advanced sorting accuracy.
Sorting: Advanced sorting using sensors to produce high-quality recycled resources.
Introduction to Telehandler
MANITOU is an industrial machinery manufacturer originating from France, specializing in telehandlers. They deploy machines with high off-road capability and work efficiency worldwide for the construction, agriculture, and industrial sectors.
We have prepared the compact telehandler MT625 and the medium-sized telehandler MT930.
