The partnership covers four single rollers ranging from 7tonnes to 14tonnes and tandem rollers of 2.5tonne and 3tonne to be built by Atlas Weyhausen.

They will be released in emerging markets including the Middle East, Turkey and Russia under Hyundai Heavy's brand from the second half of this year.
