Powerscreen, one of the leading providers of mobile crushing and screening equipment in the world, has expanded its manufacturing and distribution network to meet the demands of India’s burgeoning infrastructure building plans and its growing commercial market. Versatile Powerscreen® machines equipped with the best and state of the art gadgets will now be manufactured in India with the newly expanded sales, support and distribution network. The Powerscreen operations around the globe are part of the Terex Corporation.

“At Terex, we believe that infrastructure investment is a pathway to prosperity. We are very pleased to be building equipment in India at a time when the country is investing substantially in infrastructure development to help ensure the economic well being of its citizens,” Kieran Hegarty, Vice President, Terex Materials Processing, said adding, “Mobile crushing and screening equipment plays a basic, yet vital, role in building infrastructure. We are ready to assist both government projects and commercial ventures with the right equipment carrying the Powerscreen name built indigenously by Indian workers and sold through an enhanced distribution network.”

Terex Corporation, which is a diversified global manufacturer of equipment with net sales of $9.9 billion, operates in four business segments including Terex Aerial Work Platforms, Terex Construction, Terex Cranes and Terex Materials Processing & Mining. The company has now opened a fully functional facility for the manufacturing of tracked, wheeled crushing and screening equipment in Hosur, India. Later this year three new distributors will join the existing distributing network of Powerscreen® equipment. The Voltas, which has pioneered the mobile crushing and screening concept in India is committed to provide the highest levels of service and support to customers and will also help further expansion of the Powerscreen® equipment business in the Indian market.
