Here some of the latest Allu Transformers equipped with the new TS Blades were put through their paces in front of a highly demanding audience.

In addition to seminars, demonstrations, workshops and a highly informative walk-through of the production process at the Pennala factory, Allu product and service experts were also on-hand to provide advice in order to help the dealers assist their customers maximize their investments. “The dealer conference and meeting was the perfect occasion for us to meet the Allu people at the sharp end,” said Allu vice-president of sales Jeroen Hinnen. “I thought it was an excellent occasion, enabling us at Allu to not only help our partners, but also to listen to what they and their customers want from Allu.”

One of the highlights of the dealer event was the global launch of the new Allu Crusher to the dealers. The three new crusher models have purpose developed features that ease their use and optimize performance, whilst providing easy maintenance in the field.

“By bringing this new product line to market we will be able to provide customers with what they have been looking for. The Allu Transformer range offers unique productivity and efficiency benefits on soft rock and other materials, whilst the Allu Crusher range enables hard rock, and often troublesome demolition materials, to be effectively reduced,” says Hinnen.

R D Williams from Australia and US dealer Arrow West were awarded the ‘Allu award for excellence’. The main award went to the Van Laecke Group from the Benelux region, which was presented with ‘Dealer of the year.’

And the dealer’s performance has been outstanding in 2019,” says Allu global marketing manager Marjut Lindroos. “The Allu awards recognise how well our dealers are performing, providing customers with outstanding solutions wherever they are in the world.”
