Finlay supplies crushing and screening equipment to help rebuild Ukraine
A fleet of Finlay crushers and screeners are operating in several locations across Ukraine to process concrete and construction debris
Finlay is supporting the rebuilding of Ukraine's infrastructure in the aftermath of the Russian invasion. The global manufacturer of mobile crushing, screening, and conveying equipment is working with its Japanese distributor, Kurimoto, to provide concrete and debris processing equipment for the country.
"We are incredibly proud to see Finlay machines playing a crucial part in helping Ukraine rebuild its nation," says Martin Conway, global sales and marketing director for Finlay. "The strength and resilience shown by the Ukrainian people in the face of such adversity is truly inspiring."
Processing concrete and construction debris
The demand for high-quality aggregates and construction materials in the Ukraine has surged as the country undertakes its extensive rebuilding efforts. A fleet of Finlay crushers and screeners are working in several locations across Ukraine to process concrete and construction debris left behind by the conflict. By processing and reclaiming valuable material on site, the Finlay machines are helping accelerate the restoration of Ukraine's infrastructure and ensuring that reconstruction efforts are efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally sustainable, says the company.
"At Finlay, we are committed to assisting Ukraine in its recovery," says Conway. "By supplying and supporting our crushers and screeners operating throughout Ukraine, we are not only helping to rebuild critical infrastructure but also laying the groundwork for a brighter future for the Ukrainian people."
Due to travel restrictions for entering and exiting Ukraine, extensive online training was provided by the Finlay Training Academy to operators on the ground. To supplement the digital training, Kurimoto also organised in person, on-the-ground training facilitated by Ukraine-based contractor, Euromash, who were employed to deliver initial set up, training, and commissioning of machines. Euromash has been retained to offer ongoing customer and service support for the Finlay equipment, in conjunction with the teams at Kurimoto and Finlay.
"The Finlay Training Academy tailored and delivered exceptional online training to the operators of the machines based in Ukraine. This training has ensured that the team of operators are well versed on the efficient operation and maintenance of the machines, even in such challenging conditions," says Nakamura Mas of Kurimoto. "We are honoured to have collaborated with Finlay in supplying critical crushing and screening equipment to support Ukraine as the country forges a path toward a hopeful and resilient future."
