At Bauma
Volvo CE will have a 1,100 sq m display, located at Stand 233 in the Outdoor area. The products on display from Volvo CE at bC India 2016 will showcase the company?s strength in depth and their superior productivity. There are five machines from three product lines on show, while information on dozens more machines will be available, plus are a range of activities planned for visitors. This year?s bC India exhibition is the biggest event in the Indian construction equipment calendar and is expected to welcome tens of thousands of visitors over the course of the four-day event.

Two new compactors will be formally launched at bC India, both of which are built at the Volvo CE manufacturing facility in Bangalore. The new DD90B double drum compactor and SD110BA single drum compactor have their origins in proven Volvo designs, but feature a number updates to make them even more attractive to Indian customers. The introduction of the units is timely, with pressure growing on contractors to ensure projects stay on schedule as the Government of India targets 40 km of new road construction per day.

Perhaps the most important design feature of the new DD90B and SD110BA is the inclusion of a locally-built engine with a reputation for rugged performance and ease of service. We?ve also fine-tuned the design of these units so they appeal more to Indian customers. The new models not only deliver better vibrating performance they also have Volvo?s trademark fuel efficiency and will offer faster ROI to owners.

Maintaining the strong focus on road building at the show will be the P5320B ABG paver which is appearing at a trade show for the first time, having launched earlier in 2016. Like the new compactors, this advanced paver is also built at the Bangalore factory and delivers exceptional paving quality and productivity, as well as easier operation and outstanding fuel efficiency. It offers excellent versatility across both medium and large-scale projects where paving widths range from 2.5 m to 7 m.

Alongside the compactors and pavers Volvo CE will display two of its advanced excavators from the D-Series. The 21-ton rated EC210D and 25-ton rated EC250D represent the latest in construction technology and are well suited to a range of applications including road building, irrigation projects or work in materials handling duties. As well as superior performance, D-Series excavators can also deliver up to 10 per cent better fuel efficiency than their predecessors.

Expectations
We are looking forward to meeting with customers, dealers, press and others from across the country. We are expecting strong interest in our new compactors that are launching from our Bangalore factory, as these models have been designed specifically with Indian customers in mind.

Looking forward
We will continue to highlight the increased productivity and return on investment that customers can achieve with Volvo machines.
