Understanding our customers’ business at Hillhead 2016
Hillhead 2016 provided the perfect exhibition for us to highlight the total solutions nature of our world-leading product ranges. During the show we provided a focus on our Mobile Crushers and Screens, as well as highlighting recent developments from Customer Services.
As part of our increasing focus on the local needs of our customers, we took full advantage of the opportunities provided by exhibiting at Hillhead 2016 - the world’s leading “live-action” plant show. The exhibition provided an excellent opportunity for us to meet with UK and Irish customers, and learn directly from them how we can improve both our service and offering for their very specific needs.
Hillhead 2016 saw us concentrate on the total solutions nature of our product ranges, with many market leaders being shown. Additionally a number of new products were launched. A press conference was held on the second day of the show which saw over 30 members of the International and UK press in attendance.
