Mohamed Abdulrahman Al Bahar, the dealer of Caterpillar machinery, heavy equipment and power systems in the region, has recently delivered 35 units of Cat DP30NT forklifts to Danube Building Materials, supporting the leading building materials supplier’s operations extensively.
The new fleet of forklifts – backed with an exclusive Support Bundle – will enable Danube to carry out warehousing functionalities efficiently, at its facilities across the UAE, including Dubai, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah, Abu Dhabi, and Fujairah.
Danube Building Materials offers more than 25,000 products and value-added services.
“The sheer variety of material stocked, demanded high levels of versatility from the warehousing equipment, in addition to performance, durability and dependable support. For Danube’s kind of operations, it needed machines that assured high capacity engines, higher lifting height, and superior performance,” says Mamoun Mutair, product manager – Material Handling Equipment, Al Bahar.
Having tried and tested Cat Lift Trucks through the Cat Rental Store for more than a decade, Danube was assured of the benefits of Cat forklifts and the cost-effectiveness promised by them, he adds.
“Relying on the continuous relationship with Al-Bahar, Danube Building Materials chose 35 units of Cat DP30NT forklifts for its warehouses, after multiple rounds of consultations and considerations. The transition from rental to newly purchased equipment was smooth since the operators were previously experienced having used rental Cat Lift Trucks,” Mutair remarks.
