Following the agreement in 2012 with CAT Rental for South America and as of 2016 for the rest of the world, Italy’s Metalgalante Carmix company has joined the largest and most important rental association in the United States. Founded in 1955, the American Rental Association includes more than 1000 manufacturing companies and over 10,000 rental companies, and for over 60 years it has brought together manufacturers, dealers and customers from the construction industry. Metalgalante Carmix is the first Italian producer of self-loading concrete mixers to become part of this prestigious and historic Association.
“The United States is a market with enormous potential for our products,” comments Massimiliano Galante, Managing Director of Metalgalante Carmix. “We’re very happy to be members of the ARA, because it will give us the opportunity to introduce our machines to the rental supply chain and to show what is new about them and what makes them unique. We were pioneers in inventing self-loading concrete mixers, which we have constantly innovated and improved for all construction sites around the world. From the most agile mixers to mobile concrete plants, I am positive that our range will meet the production and quality requirements of operators in the USA.”
Massimiliano Galante was a guest at the important annual RENTALSHOW in New Orleans from 19th to 21st February, a fair organised by the ARA with selected exhibitors and dedicated to the world of rental in the construction industry. There he was able to meet the most important stakeholders in the industry and present what Carmix has to offer.
“We are pleased to welcome Metalgalante Carmix as a new associate member of the American Rental Association (ARA). Now is a great time to be part of the equipment rental industry in the U.S. as total rental revenue is expected to grow by 4.5 percent in 2018 to reach $51.5 billion. Joining the association provides manufacturers and suppliers with numerous benefits that I’m sure will be useful to Metalgalante Carmix. We thank Metalgalante Carmix for their membership,” says Christine Hammes, ARA vice president of membership.
