In late 1990’s we became dealers of Ingersoll Rand and along with their range of Road building equipment, we got Bobcat’s to sell which IR had acquired from Melroe. I had seen these mini monsters being widely used in USA and was definitely excited to sell a world class product.

Bobcat’s small size did not appeal the Indian customers who failed to realize its potential and we struggled to sell Bobcats in India. Fast Forward to 2022 and we now are getting enquiries for Skid Steer Loaders almost every week.

Skid-steers are a low investment product that is extremely versatile. With several attachments to boot, these can really be called mini monsters

Skid-steers are now recognised as an effective machine in construction and infrastructure industry. Urban development and Smart City projects have made these mini monsters extremely useful. Skid-steers are compact machines with short turning radius that can efficiently operate in confined & restricted areas. Attached with various tools Skids can perform a wide range of jobs suitable for construction, demolition, material handling, agriculture, forestry and industrial use.

Covid has hastened the manual labour shortage and contractors are being forced to look for alternatives. Mechanization is the only way forward. Our Prime Ministers’ focus on rapid urbanization and industrialization with initiatives like Make in India and Smart cities, the demand for Skids are going to pick up pace.

Skid Steers’ are really All Rounders, and one machine can perform several tasks!
