CASE Construction Equipment, a brand of CNH Industrial, has produced its 50,000th backhoe loader, from its facility in the district of Madhya Pradesh in India, the manufacturer has revealed.
In a statement announcing the milestone Fabrizio Cepollina, Vice President CNH Industrial Construction Segment in Africa, Middle East and Asia Pacific said, “CASE has been manufacturing backhoe loaders since 1957, when the industry’s first factory integrated BHL was produced by CASE; and the brand’s latest range of those machines further drive our legacy of excellence to newer heights. This is a moment of pride for us, and we are working towards making our well-equipped plant a global manufacturing hub for CNH Industrial products.”
Earlier in the year, at the 2022 Construction Machinery Middle East Awards, the firm walked away with wins in two categories.
Built in 1989, the CNH Industrial plant in the town of Pithampur, has been manufacturing a range of construction equipment including backhoe loaders, compactors and crawler-excavators.
CNH Industrial also has a significant Research and Development facility at Pithampur, where its engineers ensure that machines go through regular upgrades and are future ready. As part of the company’s sustainability goals contributing to reducing carbon emission, solar panels have been installed at its Pithampur plant to help provide up to 25% of the plant’s energy through natural sources. At present, the facility exports to over 75 countries including Africa and the Middle East, Asia Pacific region, North America and Latin America markets.
In August 2022, the firm introduced a new machinery category with the launch of the Minotaur DL550 Compact Dozer Loader launch.
“The 50,000th Backhoe Loader rollout is a proud moment for us at CNH Industrial; and reaffirms our potential, encouraging us to continue to produce versatile machines for our customers all over the world,” concluded Satendra Tiwari, Pithampur Plant Head.
