$1M OF EQUIPMENT DONATED TO TURKEY

Doosan Bobcat have announced they will provide equipment worth around $1 million for relief and recovery activities in the earthquake-stricken areas of Turkey.

The company says construction equipment will be promptly delivered through their dealer network to be of practical help in lifesaving activities in affected areas and to help restore critical infrastructure such as collapsed buildings and roads. The equipment being supplied includes skid-steer loaders and excavators to remove and clean debris, and portable generators and lighting towers to be used at sites with power supply issues. 

By providing equipment that can be used immediately for relief and recovery efforts, Doosan Bobcat say they hope to help residents of the affected areas in Turkey to begin to recover their daily lives as soon as possible.

The donation will be financed in cooperation with Doosan Bobcat’s mother company, Doosan Group, which has supported previous major disasters with equipment and donations, such as hurricanes and earthquakes in the U.S., China, Haiti, Japan and Nepal over the past 20-plus years.
