ON THE CLOCK!

Material and earth movements are the major work content of all infrastructure developments and mining activities. Front-end loaders, backhoe loaders, dozers and application-centric equipment as options for the users to choose from to suit individual requirements.

We expect EPC model dominating at least in the short term

The numbers published by ICEMA clearly shows that there is a slight uptake on the larger equipment like excavators and wheel loaders. The smaller equipment like mini excavators, backhoe loaders etc have still to pick up the trend.

A Reliable Partner

India is the third-largest producer of coal in the world and has the fourth-largest reserves, with coal accounting for about 67 per cent of the total energy consumption in India. Since coal plays such a significant role in supporting India?s energy needs, its efficient mining assumes great importance for mining companies.

We continue to offer more and more value additions in products and services.

For many decades now, we have been proving in the market that all our products offer the lowest cost of operation. We have been able to do this for customers who operate our machines on a continuous basis, even up to over 20 hours, mostly in the mining and quarrying segments, says AM Muralidharan, President, Volvo CE India.
