Dubai is an increasingly important market for Chinese heavy equipment manufacturer Shantui as the group breaks into the Middle East Market

1171 Shantui has had strong export success in key markets, selling over 200 units to the Middle East in a deal worth US$25 million. This package of equipment helps develop the firm’s profile in the Middle East, the largest single sale achieved in this territory by the firm. The units being shipped include a variety of machines, such as bulldozers, excavators, and loaders.

The machines are being supplied to Dubai through Shantui’s local subsidiary company and the deal reflects the firm’s growing strength in this territory. The company is now a competitor in this market with its bulldozers, wheeled loaders, concrete equipment and road machinery as well as with its undercarriage parts.

Meanwhile in the South East Asian market, Shantui has won a large export order for the first time. The package included a number of the firm’s SD10YE fully-hydraulic bulldozers as well as some SD13-2 bulldozers, with these machines destined for the Philippine market. The total value of the deal is worth more than $6.54 million, which is broadening its presence in the South East Asian market. The Shantui SD10YE fully-hydraulic bulldozer automatically adjusts the power take-off and running speed to adapt to the load change.

It provides fuel savings of 5-10% over conventional designs while it is offered with low emission diesels that can meet the Tier 3 as well as the Tier 4 Interim and Stage IIIB requirements for North America and Europe respectively. Its tracks can counter-rotate and the machine has infinitely variable speed changing characteristics to optimise performance to different working conditions. The company has continued to develop its fully-hydrostatic bulldozer models and now offers variants rated at 59.7, 74.6, 96.5 and 119.3kW, with engines that meet Tier 3 and Tier 4 Interim/Stage IIIB emissions standards.
