It was the threat of a spark that sparked an ingenious solution. During an on-site customer visit some three years ago, a team from Camso observed a problem plaguing the materials handling industry – and realised they already possessed a potential solution. This solution is now on the market, and Camso considers it a game-changer.
Al Saeedi Group has held a meeting with its Camso, formerly Camoplast Solideal, tyre customers. The event was chaired by Ferreol Tournebize, Camso zone director for Middle East Africa; Majid Tamoutounour, business development manager Middle East Africa; and Anish Malattiri, director, Al Saeedi Group.
Off-road tyre and track specialist Camso, formerly known as Camoplast Solideal, is accelerating efforts to phase in Camso branded products while supporting product selection in the complex construction and industrial machinery niche by introducing a new production naming convention.
With its new solid tyre plant in Vietnam’s Bình Dương Province, Camso says it aims to “gain leadership position in the Asian material handling market.” The off-road tyre and track specialist completed the 23,000 square metre plant in the town of Tân Uyên within 14 months and views the site as “an ideal location” for further diversifying Camso’s manufacturing operations and improving the company’s competitiveness. The manufacturer adds that the plant is equipped with “best-in-class manufacturing technology.”
Off-road tyre, wheel and track specialist Camoplast Solideal has rebranded itself as Camso. The new name comes five years after Camoplast’s acquisition of Groupe Solideal and is said to represent “the best of Camoplast and Solideal”. According to Pierre Marcouiller, company CEO and chairman of the Camso board, the launch of Camso “highlights the success” the company has achieved in just a few years.
Camoplast Solideal Inc. has acquired New Zealand-based distributor Eastwood Tyres. The deal, Camoplast Solideal’s first bricks and mortar venture in the country, sees it assume immediate responsibility of the Eastwood facility in Auckland, including all staff, inventory, receivables, and equipment.
Camoplast Solideal is to increase the prices of its European material handling and construction by 10 per cent from 1 May 2015. According to the company, the decision follows the ongoing depreciation of the euro and other currencies in light of the strengthening US dollar.
Off-road tyre, wheel and track specialist Camoplast Solideal Inc. has acquired Brazilian industrial tyre manufacturer Rodaco. With this purchase, Camoplast Solideal says it has improved its capacity to manufacture and distribute tyres for the material handling industry in South America.
