7659 Volvo Construction Equipment says it will demonstrate how Caring drives innovation at its interactive bauma China stand.

Under this theme, the company’s 1,804m2 exhibition area will play host to several important new products and demonstrate Volvo CE’s pledge to providing excellence throughout the product ownership lifestyle.

“Star products at the show neatly underline Volvo CE’s long term commitment to the China market,” says the company. These include the new P6820C and P8720B pavers; EW60C wheeled excavator; L220G wheeled loader and the EC170D and EC220DL crawler excavators.

Also new, and designed specifically for the China market, is a range of attachments for the L105 wheeled loader, which turn this adaptable machine into a multiple tool carrier. Attachments include an advanced log grapple, a high tipping bucket and a side dumping bucket, the latter said to be particularly useful in China’s many tunnels and underground mine sites.

Introducing the new products, Martin Weissburg, the company’s president, will also discuss trading conditions and outline the company’s future plans, highlighting how China is fundamental to the company’s future plans, pledging Volvo CE’s long term commitment to the Chinese market.

Volvo CE will also outline its comprehensive package of finance; fleet management, and parts and service support offerings.

Demonstrating how “Caring drives innovation” at the company, its latest innovative concept machine, the GaiaX, will be on display, highlighting the possibilities for fully electric compact excavators in the future.

Volvo CE will be joined at the show by sister company, industrial engine supplier 783 Volvo Penta, which will be displaying its new range of engines that are compliant with China III emissions standards, as well as its EU Stage IV/US EPA Tier 4 Final engines.
