Demolition Company Operates North America’s Largest Brokk

Brokk 800S operated by Frederico Demolition
The first Brokk 800S operating in North America is owned by Frederico Demolition, a New York-based demolition company. Mark Frederico, company owner, is passionate about bringing smarter, safter demolition to cusomters with their seventh Brokk machine.

Frederico Demolition is a leading New York-based demolition company. The company recently began operating the largest demolition robot in the North America construction market. The 24,361-pound (11,050-kilogram) Brokk 800S — designed and manufactured by Brokk, the world’s leading manufacturer of remote-controlled demolition machines — provides a 32-foot (10-meter) reach, and power on par with a machine three times its size. The industry-leading power to weight ratio makes the robot an ideal choice for Frederico Demolition’s heavy-duty applications.

“As innovators in the field of robotic demolition, Brokk is always looking for forward-thinking businesses that understand the value our equipment provides,” said Lars Lindgren, president of Brokk Inc. “We’re excited to work with Frederico Demolition to showcase the safety and efficiency of one of Brokk’s heaviest hitting demolition robots for the North American market. Frederico Demolition has a long history of bringing the right tools to the job site both for optimal safety and efficiency in every project they take on. The unmatched power-to-weight ratio of the 800S opens up new opportunities for heavy-duty demolition in confined spaces and urban areas.”

The Brokk 800S features the company’s signature three-part arm. This provides unrivaled maneuverability and an attachment capacity on par with much larger equipment. For heavy-duty demolition, the 800S can be equipped with the 2,646-pound (1,200-kilogram) Epiroc MB 1200 breaker, an attachment usually recommended for 33,000 to 57,000-pound (15,000 to 26,000-kilogram) excavators. The 800S can be used with concrete crushers, drum cutters, grapples, buckets, drilling equipment and metal shears, as well, for maximum application flexibility.

History of Frederico Demolition

Through several generations, Frederico Demolition has built a reputation for superior performance through creative solutions and also cutting-edge methodology. Their passion for smarter and safer demolition work has led to a growing fleet of robotic demolition equipment. The Brokk 800S is their seventh robot. It rounds out the capabilities of their fleet for tunneling and specialty applications. This includes mass, structural and concrete demolition. Frederico Demolition also offers disaster recovery and environmental cleanup services. This is in addition to specialty demolition for both private and public entities along the Eastern Seaboard.

“To provide exemplary results every time, you need the right tools for the job; for us, that’s Brokk demolition robots,” says Mark Frederico, owner of Frederico Demolition. “Our Brokk robots provide a lot of power in a small package. This allows us to bring a hard-hitting machine into a tight space. The range of attachments also increases our versatility to tackle a variety of specialty demolition projects.”

Throughout both the acquisition and deployment, Frederico Demolition worked with Brokk Inc. Brokk provides support from three locations throughout North America — Monroe, Washington, St. Joseph, Missouri, and Stanhope, New Jersey. In addition to sales, parts and equipment service, they also offer on-site and virtual training options for new and existing Brokk customers.
