With the United Arab Emirates booming construction market as backdrop, Terex Pegson and Powerscreen, leading manufacturers of mobile crushing and screening equipment, played host to more than 300 customers from around the globe at their World Dealer Conference, held in Dubai and Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates, 2nd-5th December 2007. The conference itself was hosted in Dubai City, with a live demonstration held in Ras Al Khaimah. 

Since crushing and screening of aggregate, sand and gravel to build roads and other infrastructure is so much in evidence in the UAE, Terex Pegson and Powerscreen deemed the UAE as the ideal venue to hold its dealer conference.  In fact, the companies have tripled their sales there in the past year alone.

"We have a long-term commitment to the UAE market and see it as a stepping stone to the whole Middle East for our business," said Damian Power, General Manager, Powerscreen.

In cooperation with its distributor, Genavco, the Terex companies demonstrated 18 machines at the Stevin Rock site in Fujairah, including the Terex® Pegson XR400, Powerscreen® Chieftain 1700, Terex ®Pegson XV350 and Powerscreen® H5163.

"Our dealers are the face of our companies to customers and end-users so we ensure they have the same drive and commitment as we do to help serve our customers," said Keith Tudor, General Manager, Terex Pegson. "Genavco, like the rest of our dealers across the world, provide exemplary after-sales service, including providing advice on the best machine for the job. With the help of our dealer, Genavco and their customer, Stevin Rock, we put on a great demonstration for our customers.  For example, the new Terex® Pegson XV350 and Powerscreen® H5163 showed their capability to handle the hard gabro rock."

Terex Pegson and Powerscreen are global leaders in mobile crushing and screening with sales of nearly 3,000 machines a year and a network of more than 100 dealers.
