Piles for Tunnel Project in Rotterdam
With a population of around 650,000, Rotterdam is not only the second largest city in the Netherlands, as home to Europe's largest seaport, it's also an important transport hub for freight traffic. A wide variety of goods from all over the world make their way to European cities after arriving in Rotterdam by ship. Most of these goods are transported onward from Rotterdam on freight trains or trucks. In order to better direct traffic in the city and permanently alleviate road congestion, a new highway called the “Blankeburgverbinding” (Blankenburg Connection) is currently being built west of Rotterdam between the existing A15 and A20 highways.

Conexpo 2020 Preview – Prinoth Tracked Vehicles & Vegetation Management
In preparation of Conexpo 2020, Prinoth Tracked Vehicles and Prinoth Vegetation Management are excited to share some of the highlights of what to expect when visiting booths – C22231 in Central Hall and F3263 in Festival Grounds – at Conexpo this coming March.
When it comes to ground and site preparation for pipeline jobs, Prinoth has you covered! With both crawler and mulching carriers, Prinoth helps you prepare your pipeline construction jobsite every step of the way from land clearing, ground preparation, earthmoving, mat hauling, moving welding equipment, hydro-seeding, right-of-way maintenance and even hydro-vacuuming for pipe maintenance and inspection. During Conexpo, Prinoth will be exhibiting numerous models and talk about many of the applications where its products are used on the right-of-way and in many other situations.
Central Hall C22231
Prinoth is quickly growing and becoming the go-to-brand of crawler carriers. With the introduction of the PANTHER T14R in 2016, Prinoth has created new markets for its products whilst developing a strong dealer network. In the Spring of 2019, the Panther T7R was introduced as the first crawler carrier with a Stage V engine and the crawler carrier which offers operators the best visibility for both their safety and jobsite workers’ safety and also for jobsite workers nearby. Both of these units will be on display in the Central Hall booth (C22231). Also on display in this booth will be the attachments models from the Vegetation Management product-line. Prinoth will indeed be introducing its newest attachment, the M450h-1450, a hydraulic-driven mulcher for remote control carriers. Furthermore, the skid-steer loader attachment, M450s-1900, will be shown as well as the entire excavator attachments line-up including the stump grinder S700e.
Festival Grounds F3263
New this year is a second booth for PRINOTH in the Festival Grounds area showcasing Prinoth Rental Solutions by Multi Machine Inc. That booth will have on display the Panther T16 equipped with a dump box, the largest dump body unit by Prinoth, as well as the Panther T6 with a passenger cabin in the rear. Available on rental throughout the USA and Canada, the Prinoth crawler carriers offer advantageous features while providing contractors with higher levels of productivity, better fuel consumption levels and outstanding reliability. Meet our rental experts to discuss the various packages and products offered.
