In the mid 1970's Petersen was asked to design a knuckleboom that could be used for loading bulky trash. The result was a trash loader concept that has been improved and refined over the last 30 years.

With complete CNC machining capabilities and fabrication facilities, Petersen is able to control every aspect of schedule and quality control.
