Biedermann Unterhalt & Vertrieb (BUV) has signed an agreement to promote CDE’s range of washing equipment throughout Switzerland.

3168 CDE Global said they chose BUV due to its extensive experience in both the mobile and stationary screening equipment market.

The BUV agreement will form part of what CDE claim will be a construction industry first-of-its-kind distribution model it intends to launch before the end of 2012.

“The CDE equipment range is a complement to the existing equipment that BUV offer and allows them to offer their customers the complete processing solution,” said Stefan Hunger, CDE sales manager for Switzerland.

BUV has been working in the construction equipment market for over 35 years and is said by CDE to be one of the most respected names in the industry.

Commenting on the new agreement, BUV managing director Lorenz Biedermann said  “This will enable us to win more business in Switzerland and enhance our position as the leading supplier of crushing, screening and washing equipment in the market.”

Biedermann said he expected the CDE M2500 mobile washing plant to be a particular success in Switzerland due to the versatility of the machine. “We have seen the M2500 operating in a number of different applications from sand and gravel to crushed rock and construction waste recycling with great success,” said Biedermann.

“We believe the M2500 is ideally suited to the requirements of the Swiss market due to the fact that it offers operators high efficiency washing on a compact and portable chassis.”

BUV is the latest addition to Northern Ireland headquartered CDE’s Partner Network. The network now includes countries in the East and West of Europe as well as the Baltic States and Russia. Outside Europe, the company has also established partnership agreements in Africa, the Middle East, Australasia and Latin America.

“We have spent a lot of time in recent years identifying companies that meet our ideal partner profile,” explained Peter Craven, head of CDE marketing and sales support. “We are in the process of developing a new [distribution] model that we believe is a first for the global construction equipment industry and this is being launched at the end of the year.”
