Dressta appoint Ferronordic Machines as official Russian Federation distributor

5013 Dressta has appointed 3720 Ferronordic Machines as the official distributor of Dressta crawler dozers and pipelayers in the Russian Federation.

Headquartered in Stalowa Wola, Poland, Dressta is renowned globally for engineering durable, powerful machines for the toughest applications.

Since being acquired by Chinese construction and quarrying equipment giant 441 LiuGong in 2012, Dressta has been steadily building its worldwide presence and reputation. The company focuses on continuous investment to R&D in order to drive innovation and further improvement of its products.

In 2015, Dressta extended its network into new markets, such as South American countries like Chile, Ecuador and Argentina; whilst also strengthening its distribution reach in the home market of Europe with the appointment of dealers in the UK and France. The appointment of Ferronordic Machines in Russia is said to further demonstrate Dressta`s commitment to expand its global footprint.

To support its global network, Dressta has a streamlined, efficient and responsive technical service organisation within eight commercial and aftermarket hubs around the globe - in Russia, USA, South Africa, Brazil, United Arab Emirates, Netherlands, Poland and Singapore - that provide a full sweep of technical and product support to customers and distributors.

Throughout its long history, Dressta has a proven track record in the CIS market having delivered around 14,000 units of machinery in Russia and the CIS countries. As the official distributor, Ferronordic Machines will also take over responsibility for the aftermarket support of the existing machinery population of Dressta crawler dozers and pipelayers in Russia.

Lars Corneliusson, CEO & president of Ferronordic Machines, said:  “Dressta bulldozers are a perfect fit into our existing offering of products from 3573 Volvo CE and 8080 Terex Trucks. The addition of bulldozers will notably improve our ability to offer full-package solutions to our customers. This appointment is fully in line with our strategy to use our extensive dealer network to distribute complementary products”.

Howard Dale, chairman of the board of directors of LiuGong Dressta Machinery, said of the appointment: “We are pleased to have Ferronordic Machines on board in our global network; a fully-fledged and dedicated distributor and leading service provider in CIS region. Both Dressta`s and Ferronordic`s mission and vision are parallel in this great industry, and I have no doubts that this partnership will be a fruitful one for our customers in the region.

“Top-notch customer oriented service approach offered from more than 70 locations in Russia, along with the extensive product offering of Dressta will create high-level 360 degree solutions that can meet expectations of even of the most demanding customers.”
