A high-quality solution for even spreading – significantly more precise than conventional manure spreaders.
Merlini compost spreader rental is ideal for farms that want to applying compost, manure or other materials cleanly and evenly. The Merlini manure and compost spreader from Gujer Innotec is a practical solution for agricultural operations looking for more than just a conventional manure spreader.
Unlike traditional manure spreaders, this system allows controlled application even with demanding materials such as straw-rich manure, compost, sand, or mineral additives. It is especially valuable for farms aiming to build humus, mix materials, or improve distribution control, the Merlini compost spreader rental is a strong solution.
We use this machine in our own operations—especially for applying organic materials as part of our composting and Terra Preta System. This makes the spreader especially relevant for farms that want to rent a manure spreader with greater precision and versatility.
If you want to apply not only manure, but also compost, straw, sawdust, lime, or rock powders , you benefit from a much more versatile solution than a standard manure spreader.
Materials can be combined and applied in a single operation. This is especially practical when distributing manure with straw, compost with basalt flour, or other farm-specific mixtures.
The moving floor and shredding rollers can be adjusted separately and adapted to the material, structure, and fiber length. This enables even and controlled application.
Many materials that would otherwise be spread using a front loader, bucket, or by hand can be applied much more efficiently with the spreader. This saves time and makes workflows more predictable.

Ideal for applying compost, evenly distributing manure, and supporting targeted humus build-up after harvest or on grassland.
Practical for farms that rely on even nutrient distribution, clean soil management, and well-dosed organic fertilization.
Suitable for targeted application between rows where material quantity and spreading pattern need to be precisely controlled.
In combination with our Aebi Vario VT450 , the spreader is also suitable for demanding terrain and typical working conditions in Eastern Switzerland.
Many farms are not just looking to rent a manure spreader, but a machine that works reliably with compost, mixtures, and challenging materials . The Merlini compost spreader enables uniform spreading and the combination of a wide range of materials with a single machine..
Use: Structural material in compost barns or as an additive.
Today: Often pre-loaded with a front loader and then spread by hand.
With spreader: Even and efficient application without additional manual handling.
Use: Mineral additives for soil structure and pH management.
Today: Often applied with specialized spreaders or manually.
With spreader: Precise and even distribution—also possible in combination with organic material.
Use: Standard organic fertilization on fields and grassland.
Today: Mostly with standard manure spreaders.
With spreader: Even spreading pattern and especially useful when combining manure with straw or other additives.
Use: Nutrient-rich fertiliser with a challenging structure.
Today: Not always easy to distribute cleanly.
With spreader: Controlled application and well suited for mixtures with straw or other materials.
Use: Often straw-rich and irregular in structure.
Today: Difficult to distribute evenly.
With spreader: Reliable application thanks to controlled material feed and improved processing.
Use: Humus build-up, soil improvement and structural measures.
Today: Often pre-loaded with a front loader and then spread manually.
With spreader: Clean and even application across the field—especially valuable for farms regularly applying compost.
A key advantage is the ability to combine materials directly:
The spreader is equipped with a hydraulically driven conveyor floor, two horizontal shredding rollers and two spreading discs . A key feature is the independently adjustable speed of the conveyor floor and shredding rollers. This allows the system to be adapted to different materials, moisture levels, and fiber lengths.
Compost, manure, straw, sawdust, lime, basalt flour, or mixtures are loaded into the spreader.
→ To the conveyor floor
he conveyor floor moves the material steadily toward the shredding rollers.
Independently adjustable speed ensures clean and controlled material flow
→ To the shredding rollers
The horizontal rollers loosen, break up, and prepare the material before distribution.
Speed can be adjusted depending on structure and fiber length
→ To the spreading discs
The spreading discs distribute the prepared material evenly across the field.
Driven via PTO
→ Onto the field
Depending on the settings, the material can be spread evenly across the surface or placed more precisely—ideal for organic fertilization, soil improvement, and specialized applications.
The independently adjustable hydraulic components make the spreader ideal for handling long-fiber, difficult, or mixed materials. This is a key advantage for farms that need to spread different types of materials reliably, manure spreader.
With straw or straw-rich manure, the shredding rollers can be set faster and the conveyor floor slower .
The material is guided in a controlled manner towards the height-adjustable barrier. This regulates how much material reaches the rollers. The rollers can first loosen and break up long fibres before the material drops onto the spreading discs.
Depending on the material and application, a choice can be made between full-area spreading and concentrated placement.

Here is a YouTube-Video from our farm showing the manure and compost spreader in use, applying organic materials on our fields. This gives you a direct impression of how the spreader works in practice.
The compost spreader is part of our regenerative system for composting, soil biology and sustainable humus build-up.
More information about our overall system, additional products, and the technology behind the spreader can be found on our overview page as well as directly at Gujer Innotec.
Compost, manure, basalt flour, lime, rock powders, sand, straw, sawdust and various mixtures.
Die separat regulierbaren Geschwindigkeiten von Kratzboden und Schneidwalzen ermöglichen eine bessere Aufbereitung und gleichmässigere Verteilung – besonders bei schwierigen, feuchten oder langfaserigen Materialien.
Yes. In particular, the combination of manure, straw, compost or basalt flour is a key advantage of this system.
With spreading discs, the material is evenly distributed over approx. 8 metres. Without spreading discs, targeted placement over approx. 2 metres width is possible.
