Vigan buys Simporter

Jiangsu Rainbow Heavy Industries Co Ltd has won an order from Guangxi to supply a 200 tph Genma mobile pneumatic ship-unloader (CSU) for grain handling.

While the cement handling market remains depressed, the advantages of pneumatic discharge for the agri-bulk and biomass sectors continues to generate strong demand.

Italy-based Roncuzzi, part of the country’s WAM Group, has recently installed two pneumatic ship unloaders in the Port of Umm Qasr, Iraq.

The market for pneumatic handling systems is split into very distinct sectors. While cement is suffering a downturn, agribulks are proving resilient as is biomass demand.

Confidence is returning to the construction industry, which was badly hit by the global financial meltdown, leading to an upturn in the pneumatic cement-handling sector. The agri-bulk business maintains a stable outlook, boosted by the potential in the biomass market.

The pneumatic cement handling sector is experiencing an upturn, as confidence returns to the construction industry following the global financial meltdown. Meanwhile, the agri-bulk business is being underpinned by the potential in the biomass market.
