New roller launched in Gulf

Dynapac, part of the Atlas Copco group, has launched its new CP275 pneumatic roller at the Intermat Middle East exhibition in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Available worldwide from next January, the new compactor has a maximum service weight of almost 28 tonnes and features a separate brake system cylinder.

Talking at the show Massimo Marchetti, regional general manager for Atlas Copco Construction across the Middle East, said the UAE was becoming one of the key markets in the region.

"But not all markets are the same," he added, "some are good and some not so good, but there is a lot of investment being talked about and we are waiting for some yet to start. Having said that, the market outlook is strong."

The second Intermat Middle East exhibition and conference is being held between October 8 and 10 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
