Doosan Bobcat’s Kim: Skid steer loaders demand up

Rightly called as the “Jack of all Trades”, a skid steer loader (SSL) can perform numerous functions with aplomb. These mini versatile machines are used in various industries – from mining to agriculture. Their use in construction activities greatly outweighs their utility in other sectors. However, now with the construction industry growing steadily with the government’s impetus on the infrastructure segment, the demand for SSL is also steadily increasing. Though the SSL market in India is relatively at a nascent stage, equipment manufacturers are quite confident that the equipment’s sound technical features in diverse sectors will create strong demand for the machine.

Bobcat Company leads the industry in the design, manufacture, marketing and distribution of compact equipment for construction, rental, landscaping, agriculture, grounds maintenance, government, utility, industry and mining. Hyunsoo (HS) Kim, Director Commercial, Doosan Bobcat India, speaks with Equipment India on the demand for SSL in India, and some of the unique features of SSL.
