Powerscreen, one of the world’s leading providers of mobile crushing, screening and washing equipment, is now in its 10th year of being active in the Indian market. Patrick Brian, Global Sales and Marketing Director, said: “India has been a rapidly emerging economy and Powerscreen equipment has played a major role in developing the country’s infrastructure. Powerscreen has grown with the country in the last 10 years. By investing in the local economy with a purpose-built manufacturing facility in Hosur, India, we have strengthened our intent to continue to grow with India. We are looking forward to the next 10 years.”

Powerscreen offers a comprehensive range of mobile tracked and wheeled crushers and screens, as well as washing equipment. These include the market leading jaw, cone and impactor crushers as well as a broad range of screening and washing machines. In 2001, Powerscreen appointed Voltas as its first distributor in India. Voltas sold the first track plant in September 2001 and since then, Voltas has helped Powerscreen gain the largest market share of tracked crushing and screening equipment in India. As the market continued to develop, it became evident that Powerscreen would need to recruit additional distributors. In 2009, Alpha Technical Services and Vijay Traders were added. In 2011, the distribution network has been further fortified  with the signing of two additional distributors, Progressive  and Lathangi, extending Powerscreen’s reach within India.
