Doosan Bobcat, a world leader in the manufacturer of compact construction machines, has announced that it will provide construction equipment worth around $1 million for relief and recovery activities in the earthquake-stricken areas of Turkiye. 

 

The Korean company said these will be promptly delivered through its dealer network to be of practical help in lifesaving activities in affected areas and to 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, it stated.

 

According to the group, 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 US, China, Haiti, Japan and Nepal over the past 20-plus years.

 

Doosan Bobcat said by providing equipment that can be used immediately for relief and recovery efforts, it hopes to help residents of the affected areas in Turkiye to begin to recover their daily lives as soon as possible.
